So essentially, you are looking for a 'direct' x-connect to AWS ? and not wanting to go thru a peering fabric or any other network ?
just as an aside amazon peer routes are in my experience regional so if the goal is to offload traffic in miami bound for prineville you may not get the oregon DC routes from an east coast peer. A direct connect partner probably has no such considerations.

We¹re looking at potential connectivity need of 100mbps from a customer colocated in NAP of America¹s in Miami to some stuff living in AWS land. We weren¹t particularly thrilled about the aspect of a GRE tunnel over the internet (our AWS stuff does some data manipulation) and wanted to use the Amazon Direct Connect functionality. It seems like they do this direct connect as select peering points, and there were no options for anything in Miami. It may just be easier to buy something off of the provider to run the traffic over to a colo with AWS connectivity. I¹m really just looking for sexy ways to avoid the internet as a transit route for this data (the data doesn¹t have anything to do with the internet).

What kind of issue are you running into ?
I believe AWS is present on the NOTA/NAP peering fabric, and as such if one was to get access to the NOTA/NAP peering fabric they should be able to peer / pass traffic directly to them.

Anyone out there listening have experience getting traffic originating at NAP of Americas in Miami to AWS in a non-suck (internet) manner? I know AWS has direct connect, but they are mum about options in MIA.
Thanks in advance! //warren
