The Hyperscalers Have Arrived
Tech giants are investing in submarine cables, sure. But you already know that part of the story.
It gets interesting when we look closer at the number of cables hyperscalers are investing in, for how much, and where.

Our resident podcaster Greg Bryan recently sat down with Daniel Remarc Bognár—the Head of Network Architecture at Norsk Hydro—to get his network case study.
As an early adopter of SD-WAN, and an eventual participant in a merger, there were plenty of lessons learned along the way. (Which we will now share with you, dear listeners.)
Sure, the TeleGeography team was sad to miss out on their annual trip to Honolulu to deliver our yearly telecom workshop. But a virtual event couldn't stop Brianna Boudreau from taking the audience on a trek around the world.
There's so much information packed into our 2021 Global Internet Map that you might not know where to start.
You could begin by digging into the 35% growth we saw in international internet capacity—from around 450 Tbps to over 600 Tbps—between 2019 and 2020.
Or you could scope out regional connectivity intel, noting that Europe is the region with the highest regional capacity; it also saw the largest growth from 2019 to 2020.
Over the last year we've learned a lot about internet middle mile—that mysterious space between the office and the cloud.
Our team looked closer at what happens between core backbone and local access. We explored provider types, cloud connectivity, and adoption use cases.
And we can't wait to share our findings.
The data center sector rose to the challenge of 2020.
This was Jon Hjembo's opening message during his review of the interconnection sector during PTC '21.
A new class of network provider has emerged, optimizing connectivity between the office and the cloud. What do they offer? How do they do it? And what’s happening between the core backbone and local access?
TeleGeography Principal Analyst Erik Kreifeldt is in the house and Greg is asking the big questions about internet middle mile.
Research Director Alan Mauldin is known on the conference circuit for presentations like "Is Your Planned Submarine Cable Doomed?" and "Is a Mass Extinction of Submarine Cables Looming?" and "The Dystopian Future of International Networks."
His latest review of submarine cable trends took us to a happier place as he explored the utopian qualities of the submarine cable landscape in 2021.
What do you think of when you think of integrating security into the WAN?
WAN Dynamics' Jason Gintert sees a changing connectivity landscape that presents no shortage of challenges to security teams.
