Fw: Internet Traffic Exchanges - A Very Successful Model

Thanks for this Carlton. More attention needs to be paid to this issue. Here in Canada CIRA is promoting the establishment of such exchanges and exchanges have been established by BC Net, a regional affiliate of CANARIE, Canada's high speed research network.

Hi, the importance of this work by the OECD transcends IXPs by far and is more relevant to the ALAC in another sense: it shows that the Internet model of multistakeholder governance works really well and is in no way a statu quo but a revolution still in motion. That said, the recent increase in attention to IXPs is also associated with the fact that some of them appear to be of a new breed, attracting content and cloud-based service providers as well as CDNs (content-distribution networks, such as Akamai). New models to finance the IXPs appear because shortening the links to them (making that traffic in-country) diminishes the bandwidth demand for cross-border traffic, thus increasing the ROI of the investments that ISPs must still make to gain connection and accesss to the IXP. Little of that has bearing upon our ICANN remit directly but its vindication of the vitality of the Internet model is of high importance. Yours, Alejandro Pisanty ! !! !!! !!!!

Well said, Alejandro! Yessir, very true. The major disability in the Caribbean is access. Some of us are hoping that development of IXPs in the Caribbean will act exactly in this way, stimulating growth in local content development which in turn might drive deeper broadband penetration. We have to use push/pull strategies to get out from under this one. - Carlton ============================== Carlton A Samuels Mobile: 876-818-1799 *Strategy, Planning, Governance, Assessment & Turnaround* =============================
Yessir, I agree more attention to the IXP matter is required. BTW, I've had some dealings with CANARIE thru my C@ribNET interests; this is the regional research and education network we just implemented. Great outfit, that CANARIE. - Carlton. ============================== Carlton A Samuels Mobile: 876-818-1799 *Strategy, Planning, Governance, Assessment & Turnaround* ============================= On Wed, Oct 24, 2012 at 1:29 PM, Gareth Shearman <shearman@victoria.tc.ca>wrote:
