Building Europe’s digital backbone in the Baltics

For many years, the Baltics were often viewed as the edge of Europe’s network map. Today, they are increasingly becoming part of its backbone. We’re seeing this shift driven by several trends at once. Cloud adoption continues to accelerate, AI workloads are generating unprecedented traffic volumes, and organizations are placing greater emphasis on resilience and […]

Scaling our AI superhighway in Mexico

Mexico has been an important part of Arelion’s story for more than a decade. When the country’s telecommunications reforms opened the market in 2013, we saw the potential for Mexico to become a key digital gateway between North and Latin America. Arelion were among the early global carriers to invest in the market, and we’ve […]

Protecting the Internet from AI-enabled threats

Every year, data from our #1 ranked global backbone provides us with actionable defense insights straight from the heart of the Internet. Our annual threat landscape report has proven invaluable for helping our customers prepare for constantly evolving Distributed-Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks. This year was no different, as we saw record-breaking botnet attacks reaching 6.1 Terabits […]

Turning sustainability ambition into action

When people think about sustainability, they do not always think about networks. Yet every cloud application, AI workload, video stream and digital interaction depends on connectivity. As digitalization accelerates, the infrastructure powering our connected world becomes increasingly important, not only for economic growth and innovation, but also for how we manage our environmental and social […]

How channel partners find 100G opportunities

For many channel partners, finding a 100G opportunity can feel like searching for a needle in a haystack. Unlike traditional connectivity services, high-capacity bandwidth isn’t something you can market broadly and hope the right prospects appear. The reality is much simpler: organizations that need 100G, 400G, or even 800G services tend to leave clues long […]

Building a global channel ecosystem for the AI era

The enterprise networking landscape is evolving quickly. As organizations invest in AI, cloud and data-intensive applications, they need trusted partners that can help them navigate growing complexity while maintaining performance, resilience and scale. From my perspective, that creates a significant opportunity for channel partners that can combine expertise, reach and a strong customer experience. At […]

Don’t forget to switch on roaming

We’ve all been there. The plane touches down, the “Welcome to [Country]” text arrives, and the first thing you do is frantically toggle off data roaming or even roaming altogether. You spend the rest of your trip hunting for hotel Wi Fi or juggling a third party travel eSIM app just to save a bit of money, enticed by the aggressive advertising of travel eSIM providers.

Why this blog still matters ahead of International Women’s Day 2026

This blog shouldn’t be necessary. Gender equality should be a given – in telecoms and in every other sector. But the reality is that women remain underrepresented in STEM and in technical leadership roles across our industry. This blog celebrate the women who power Arelion, but also acknowledge the work still ahead of us.

Connectivity case study: When the unthinkable happens

Our teams were put to the test this past summer when a critical fiber connection between two major cities required immediate replacement. Let’s take a behind-the-scenes look at how our experts protected the connectivity our wholesale, cloud and enterprise customers depend on to keep their operations online, no matter the circumstances.

NaaS – The backbone of agentic AI

Last month, I had the privilege of attending Global NaaS Event (GNE) 2025 in Arlington, Texas. Over five days, more than 500 leaders across enterprise IT, service providers, technology vendors, cloud and data center operators, cybersecurity, systems integrators, media, and analysts came together to explore one theme: how Network‑as‑a‑Service (NaaS) is evolving to power AI at global scale. Here […]

Is your enterprise network ready to capture the AI opportunity?

With so much focus on the chipsets and data centers enabling artificial intelligence (AI), what’s network connectivity’s role? AI is defining the future – adoption has exceeded all expectations and AI workloads are set to increase dramatically over the next five years. But AI is only as good as the real-life connectivity it depends upon. […]
