[kictanet] KIXP reaches 1Gbps of traffic

Sat Jul 16 10:37:10 EAT 2011

Mich,

I like ;-)  

But as Francis says, plse put it in perspective by comparing with the previous years (or give us the url for the graphs we do the comparisons ourselves).  

Also, throw in the ratio between Local vs International traffic over the years since 1G local traffic is good but compared to 20G International traffic (CCK May2011 report?) may imply we might still have some time to go. In layman terms this means that we are Net IMPORTERS of content and EXPORT very little content. Put differently very few chaps out there are interested in our content down here (coz it doesnt exist - even our very own trace route to nation.co.ke hosts abroad...)

...a good target would be to work towards 50:50 ratio of local to international traffic or 20G local and 20G international...all the said and done.  Keep it up KIXP.

walu.

Hi Michuki,Is it possible to know what growth this represents over the period of last 12-24 months.   Given its an indicator of greater consumption, it would be good to correlate this over a period of time to single out factors may have contributed to this (better capacity, more content, more users, etc)

Dear Listers,

This afternoon the KIXP reached its highest peak of 1Gbps for local

traffic exchanged.

A sincere appreciation and congratulations to all those behind this

achievement, Fiona, her team and the partners KDN, Google and others.

Well done.

Its indeed a significant achievement and the next ceiling is 10Gbps.

Regards,

Michuki.
