Failure
Despite being touted as an answer to enhance local peering, NIXI has largely been a failure due to its pricing structure. It has been seen many times that inter India data transfers sometimes even gets routed by places like Singapore due to reluctance of ISP's, specially smaller ones to route it through NIXI. It's per GB pricing in spite of per port pricing has been largely responsible for this as this dissuades ISP's which have a large volume of outgoing traffic.

Famous quotes containing the word failure:
“Human beings are compelled to live within a lie, but they can be compelled to do so only because they are in fact capable of living in this way. Therefore not only does the system alienate humanity, but at the same time alienated humanity supports this system as its own involuntary masterplan, as a degenerate image of its own degeneration, as a record of people’s own failure as individuals.”
—Václav Havel (b. 1936)
“Slowly the poison the whole blood stream fills.
It is not the effort nor the failure tires.
The waste remains, the waste remains and kills.”
—William Empson (1906–1984)
“... how have I used rivers, how have I used wars
to escape writing of the worst thing of all—
not the crimes of other, not even our own death,
but the failure to want our freedom passionately enough
so that blighted elms, sick rivers, massacres would seem
mere emblems of that desecration of ourselves?”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
