Interconnection Schemes and Strategies for ISPs Tutorial
The tutorial will cover the different IP network interconnection schemes and their benefits to the different stakeholders (connectivity providers, content providers and end users). The traffic model will be discussed, as well as different peering models (private, public, bilateral or multilateral, paid peering). Different statistics and studies relevant for the analysis of traffic exchange agreements will be presented, as will existing indicators, relevant meetings and different strategies that might be followed. Finally, examples of decision making on the part of an operator will be presented.
The Workshop's objective is to introduce relevant information when taking connectivity decisions for service providers and enterprises. The target audience includes everybody involved in the buying/selling of international/regional/peering capacity (commercial, marketing department or peering coordinators) and network engineers.
