Hello all,
I located our new midwest datacenter site, but I'm going to need
connectivity to Chicago. At which other middle of the country places
should we connect? We will obviously connect back to our network in
New York and Los Angeles, but I'm not familiar with other carrier
hotels or IXs in the middle of the US. What is in Dallas? Does anyone
have any strong feelings about Telx in
<http://www.telx.com/facilities.php?section=ChicagoIL350ECermakRoad>Chicago,
IL @ 350 E. Cermak Road or
<http://www.telx.com/facilities.php?section=ChicagoIL600_780SFederalSt>600
S. Federal Street? Are those the best places in the midwest? Any
other suggestions? I am asking here because I am looking for a
carrier and ISP perspective. I am going to colocate core and edge
routers and I need connectivity to a large pool of carriers and no
MRC on cross connections. Any help or advice would be appreciated. Thanks!
