Re: [nznog] Power event in sky tower

Hi List I recently had to look over all the datacentres available in Auckland and their connectivity to APE. There are only three locations in Auckland (SkyTower, 220 Queen, Telco House) at which Citylink will sell you a port to APE for a very reasonable price. Other locations such as at Vocus are much more expensive, presumably as their costs are higher in those locations. SkyTower is complicated, Telco House is pretty much full, which leaves 220 Queen as the place to be. Someone from Citylink may like to confirm what I have said.

We have equipment in both SkyT and Kingston St. For us Kingston St has been less reliable than the SkyT lately.

What reliable locations are there on APE in Auckland? And from what Liam said before, do any of these locations have a lot of us in them already?

Cheers Dave

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.
