Landing Stations used as datacenter

Fri Nov 15 09:47:30 UTC 2019

I think AMS-IX had an exchange in Mombasa in the SEACOM landing station at some point, but that is gone now. I'm not sure about the exact reasons there but someone here probably knows what happened.

There's also a big amount of carriers in the TATA landing station in Mumbai, it is the second-largest in that market just behind GPX in terms of carrier density at least according to PeeringDB.

Best regards,
Martijn

Hey there

I have been putting my thoughts on Infrapedia blog and sharing with folks like

https://www.infrapedia.com/post/top20cities-datacenters

I am working on a new article and this time my topic will be looking at cable landing stations(cls). Do you consider cable landing stations as a datacenter? Do you have any experience deploying a pop in CLS? Are you able to share (on or off record) your experience which I can refer as your experience (good or bad) why deploying a pop inside a CLS is good or bad idea. Any additional comments..

I am not a big fan of CLS deployments. They have limited networks ( like only carriers and no eyeballs) and very expensive connectivity (usually)

Thank you in advance sharing your experience

Mehmet
