Keeping local traffic, local, and bridging the distance between content and networks. Thank you Internet Society for the collaboration on this article, and sharing our story. #Guam #Datacenter #IXP
Guam’s multiple subsea cables and Internet exchange points (IXPs) have helped establish the country as an Internet connectivity hub for the Pacific. The country’s newest IXP, Guam Exchange, wants to capitalize on this regional and international connectivity to attract more content delivery networks, which would provide more cached content to the country and the region. Hosting content closer to end users and keeping local Internet traffic within a country or region increases Internet performance and reduces the cost of the Internet for end users. Thanks, Jose Dante Santiago, for sharing. https://lnkd.in/dA9fPcxy
