  • Interconnection
    Interconnection 101 As cloud usage takes off, data production grows exponentially, content pushes closer to the edge, and end users demand data and applications at all hours from all locations, the ability to connect with a wide variety of players becomes ever more important. This report introduces interconnection, its key players and busi- ness models, and trends that could affect interconnection going forward. KEY FINDINGS Network-dense, interconnection-oriented facilities are not easy to replicate and are typically able to charge higher prices for colocation, as well as charging for cross-connects and, in some cases, access to public Internet exchange platforms and cloud platforms. Competition is increasing, however, and competitors are starting the long process of creating network-dense sites. At the same time, these sites are valuable and are being acquired, so the sector is consolidating. Having facili- ties in multiple markets does seem to provide some competitive advantage, particularly if the facilities are similar in look and feel and customers can monitor them all from a single portal and have them on the same contract. Mobility, the Internet of Things, services such as SaaS and IaaS (cloud), and content delivery all depend on net- work performance. In many cases, a key way to improve network performance is to push content, processing and peering closer to the edge of the Internet. This is likely to drive demand for facilities in smaller markets that offer interconnection options. We also see these trends continuing to drive demand for interconnection facilities in the larger markets as well. © 2015 451 RESEARCH, LLC AND/OR ITS AFFILIATES.

  • Executive Report
    Executive Report Using the CyrusOne IX for Active-Active, Active-Passive and Active-DR Interconnection A better use of time and money is to use large Web-scale carrier-neutral data centers containing the resiliency required for power, cooling, seismic stability, and most importantly, connectivity. Establishing the Right DR Strategy Most enterprises today are required to operate at least a simple disaster recovery (DR) data center strategy to maintain business continuity due to regulations and other factors Single consolidated including uptime resiliency. Compliance, regulations and due diligence often necessitate data center the active synching of IT environments to each other (active-active) or asymmetrical • With all of the eggs in one basket, synching to each other (active-passive). harden the basket. These enhanced DR strategies require highly connected data centers within specific latency parameters, and also require careful site selection. Factors for site selection include power-grid resiliency (there are three grids in North America: East, West and Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT)), seismic mitigation and network availability. These three factors can create a daunting task for an enterprise, especially when needing to hire dedicated staff to select, build and operate these facilities. Two data centers Using in-place optical waves, multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) and Internet Protocol • Active – passive (IP) transit greatly reduces costs and removes the need for expensive telecom hardware • Active – active and the staff to operate that hardware. How a National IX Works The CyrusOne National Internet Exchange (IX) meets many requirements for connectivity by delivering carrier-class infrastructure to data centers. This neutral platform has dedicated high-speed multiple carrier waves and MPLS between sites already in place.
