Hi Stephen,
Yes, I’d agree when LINX was just a transit alternative, but we’re now
marketing the new Cloud services and production applications can live
there, so customers are asking do they just buy direct connectivity to
AWS and Azure, or can they use the LINX architecture……and the next
question of course is the SLA.
Isn't the whole schpill from the cloud folk hinging on them offering a
better SLA if you go "direct", vs. the public Internet (of which an
exchange point is part)?
Probably also explains why they charge more, even though, in practice,
the performance is the same, and they are using the very same network
for these "direct" services as they do for their own IP backbone.
Mark.
