Folks, Sorry I missed you guys at the recent UKNOF day.
We are about to take receipt of a stream of satellite image data at a rate 150Mbps, growing to 600Mbps over the next four years. This then needs to be redistributed to UK end users on an on demand basis. So if we get new interesting images (like pictures of where planes might have crashed in the Indian ocean) then we could get a lot of demand. Our peak to average ratio is likely to be massive. As we only have a mandate to distribute to the UK, I am thinking that I can just peer with UK ISPs and deliver the data to their customers. So the plan is to lay in 2x 10G into London and interconnect to one or more exchanges via an exchange aggregator. If anyone had any thoughts or comments on this, I'd love to hear from you.
