Quoting the website:

 "DesMoinesIX is a switching fabric located in the ConnectDSM
  facility at 666 Walnut St. in downtown Des Moines, Iowa."

Looks like they're affiliated with or run by the same group as Kansas
City Internet Exchange (KCIX), which is AWESOME. I'm more familiar with
KCIX, having passed some traffic through it from 2 colos and Google
Fiber.

Here are current network graphs for KCIX:

Maxing at around 700gbps!

DesMoinesIX is newer and smaller and doesn't have stats yet, but it'll
be cool to see the growth as more networks join. If you're part of a
large network or organization in DSM, consider peering.
