Aug 28, 2026 — New Data Center IPv6 Feed and Expanded Data Center IPv4 Coverage

Effective August 28, 2026, Pixalate is introducing a new, dedicated Data Center IPv6 Feed and expanding IPv4 coverage on the existing Data Center Data Intelligence Feed, delivering stronger pre-bid protection against data center-originated Invalid Traffic (IVT) across both IP protocols.

What's New?

Data Center IPv6 Feed Pixalate is launching a new, dedicated Data Center IPv6 Feed, covering IPv6 IP ranges across 66 hosting, cloud, and data center providers. This is a separate feed from the existing Data Center Data Intelligence Feed, giving clients dedicated IPv6 coverage alongside their existing IPv4 protection.

Expanded IPv4 Coverage The existing Data Center Data Intelligence Feed is being expanded with over 15,000 additional IPv4 IP ranges from 13 operators, including Meta, IBM Cloud, and Tencent Cloud.

What's the Anticipated Impact?

Stronger Pre-Bid Protection This expanded coverage strengthens pre-bid protection against data center-originated IVT across both IPv4 and IPv6 traffic, giving clients broader visibility into data center-sourced invalid traffic without any change to how they consume the feed.

Continuity for Existing Integrations The existing Data Center Data Intelligence Feed continues to work as-is. The expanded IPv4 coverage is applied automatically, with no changes to naming convention, schema, or delivery method.

What You Need to Do

For Existing Data Center Data Intelligence Feed Subscribers No action required. Continue using your existing feed as-is — the improved IPv4 coverage is applied automatically, and no integration changes are needed.

For Clients Adopting the New Data Center IPv6 Feed We recommend downloading and integrating the Data Center IPv6 Feed as soon as it's available to begin benefiting from expanded pre-bid IVT mitigation. Delivery specifications are as follows:

File Format CSV
Delivery Method FTP, S3, AWS RTB Fabric, APIs
Naming Convention DatacenterSubnetsWeek[WeekNum]


Notes: The week number resets to 1 at the start of each new year. Weeks 1–9 use a single digit; weeks 10 and onward use two digits.

Examples: DatacenterSubnetsWeek1, DatacenterSubnetsWeek2, DatacenterSubnetsWeek10, DatacenterSubnetsWeek11
Update Frequency Weekly (estimated availability Fridays 12:00 AM UTC)
