Thanks guys for the replies. I wanted to clarify two things in my questions. First by peering I did not necessarily mean "settlement free" interconnection. I meant any inter-AS connection. My understanding is that in addition to the cost of transit that should be paid to the transit provider, there also exists the cost of the xconnect that is charged by the colocation provider. Secondly, my question was more about the expenses, as opposed to the technical costs/benefits. I have browsed through the "Peering Playbook", but I think its more about providing a case "settlement free" peering.

I think there is no single answer as different businesses may have different pricing models. I hope the discussion can help me understand
