If it's dark fibre, how is it having any effect at all on transit cost?
- mcbridematt 11y agoI didn't say it did. It was a side comment that the situation was not as dire as Cloudflare said - if you can avoid buying transit directly from one specific provider.
- CountSessine 11y ago#include <pedantic.h> Yes, you did: A: There is plenty of dark fibre around in Australia (driven by a need to bypass monopoloy Telcos) B: the bandwidth costs cited by Cloudflare have no real effect on datacenter design and C: (The 'true' cost of transit in AU, ignoring Telstra is closer to the Asia region average of $30 IIRC) Based on simple sentential logic, you are saying A->B and we're provided with C as additional information. Unless your word that isn't being used as an implicative connective, which would be silly. How does fallow, unused, dark fibre have any effect on transit cost? Is there a 'transit cost' options market or something?
