Re: [nznog] Power event in sky tower

It's not so much that APE is there. Honestly APE has less value compared to the other cross connects I have at SKY in terms of a reason for co-locating there. It's more that every other carrier / ISP / random guy with an AS has a presence there, so is a handy spot to interconnect. If there was a decent DC in the CBD, where everyone else was, and that wasn't excruciatingly expensive, then I'm sure we'd all be there instead. Also Citylink seem to have a default pricing policy that's, "well try and make it really expensive to connect to APE everywhere else but sky", which seems to have sane pricing for historical reasons. -- Liam Farr +64-22-6107884 +64-27-5222624 Sent from my iPhone

Hands up for Level 48 (or ST as a whole) being the stupidest place for co-lo in the world?

APE's available at a whole lot of places around Auckland now, as an industry should we be looking at a move away from the SkyTower? Not all at once, but I'd be interested to know:

Who still thinks it's a critical place and would deploy new equipment there today? Anyone have it as their only point of possible APE interconnect in Auckland? Is anyone not aware that there are loads of other places to get on APE/do peering/hand off in Auckland?

I'd like to be having a conversation in the not to distant future which went along the lines of: "Heh, remember those crazy days when we used to have a peering exchange in the sky tower?" "Heh - yeah what were we thinking"

We saw a Vocus peer go away and come back at 10:40, but our UPS (on 48) hasn't spotted anything.
