Then, all of the sudden, the mostly clueless managers are all about it. But, by then it's too late. Farting in a hurricane and hoping it makes a difference... ;-) scott

Capacity/transit costs vs growth
by Jean-Francois Mezei 01 Jun '15

01 Jun '15

I am looking for some rough estimates of the ratio of capacity (equipment) pricing declines versus average increase in end user capacity. For instance, say end user average capcity usage increases 50% over 3 years, would the ISP's costs also increase by 50% ? Or would increased efficency of equipment result in a 50% decrease in capacity costs yielding roughly the same total cost to the service provider ? So I am looking are some sort of ratio of gross costs increases/decreases relative to end user usage increase in usage over time. Context: Wholesale services in Canada are priced linearly and there is a process trying to convince the CRTC to review them ASAP. So if average use grows from 1mbps during peak to 1.2mbps, we are looking at 20% increase in costs in a linear pricing scheme. But if this happens over a period where there have been improvements in equipment/efficiency, then one would think the increase in costs would be less than 20%. So I am looking for any and all information that can help convince the regulator that current linear increase is not right and needs a review. any help appreciated.

BGP Multihoming 2 providers full or partial?
by Maqbool Hashim 01 Jun '15

01 Jun '15

Hi, We are an enterprise that are eBGP multihoming to two ISPs. We wish to load balance in inbound and outbound traffic thereby using our capacity as efficiently as possible. My current feeling is that it would be crazy for us to take a full Internet routing table from either ISP. I have read this document from NANOG presentations: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uac… The above document reenforces my opinion that we do not need full routing tables. However I was seeking some clarity as there are other documents which suggest taking a full routing table would be optimal. I "guess" it depends on our criteria and requirements for load balancing: - Just care about roughly balancing link utilisation - Be nice to make some cost savings We have PI space and two Internet routers one for each ISP. Either of our links is sufficient to carry all our traffic, but we want to try and balance utilisation to remain within our commits if possible. I am thinking a "rough" approach for us would be: - Take partial (customer) routes from both providers - Take defaults from both and pref one Maybe we can refine the above a bit more, any suggestions would be most welcome! Many Thanks

Colo Capacity quote in Renton, WA 98057, USA needed
by Don Gould 01 Jun '15

Hi, I have half a dozen servers in a DC in Renton, WA 98057, USA. I'm looking for quotes 7 RU with 100mbit PIR. I do need A and B side power. The pricing from my current provider has got out of hand and they have burnt the relationship. As a result I am interested in hearing from others who might be interested in servicing this small requirement.
