Subject: Anyone can help on this puzzle?

There is a IDC service provider whose data centers are scattered here and there. It has its own AS number but no circuits to mesh its nodes. If they want to run BGP with their carrier to exchange routes carrying traffic between their nodes ( I suspect it is not a VPN senario because it is using public IP address and most of the traffic is not internal) and their IP block are potentially intersected among the nodes,  is each zone sharing same AS and running like an island enough to go? And do we need an IPsec gateway to create tunnels over public networks (through the eBGP peer >:$ #$^$#$ don’t faint) to setup iBGP if possible at all?
