We've all seen shifts in the colocation landscape over the last year. So what does 2017 have in store?
We're hosting a webinar on this topic with Digital Realty Director of Project Marketing Scott Sherwood and VP of Global Product Management Ben Gonyea on February 28, 2017, at 2 p.m. ET/11 a.m. PT.
We recently wrote about the decline of international carrier traffic, which comes at the hands of “over-the-top” (OTT) communications services.
Here's a good one from the archives.
"America and Europe will soon be linked by the first trans-Atlantic telephone cables," reads this March 1954 article from Popular Mechanics.
With the TeleGeography Report hot off the press, it seems that there are more than a few good stories nestled in this year’s data.
First up is the curious discovery that 2015 marked a turning point in the market. It was the first time since the Great Depression that international carrier voice traffic declined.
If you thought we weren't going to be reading and sharing stories in 2017 about telecoms, maps, and technology, then you'd be very wrong. Here's a glimpse at what we've been sinking our teeth into this month.
For our first-ever spotlight, we’re joined by Senior Analyst Paul Brodsky. Paul speaks with us about how - quite literally - the information we share traverses the internet.
Brian Lavellée, Director of Portfolio Marketing at Ciena, posed this question to webinar-watchers last Wednesday. How great would it be if you got an advanced warning prior to a submarine cable going down?
Brian was joined by TeleGeography Senior Analyst Brianna Boudreau to tackle this idea and others about the cable business.
The announcement by AT&T that it switched off its GSM network on January 1, 2017, means it is the latest in a line of operators who have moved away from 2G services.
But don’t wave goodbye just yet – there are a few 2G holdouts in the mix.
The mobile industry’s days of dizzying subscriber growth appear to be long gone. Double-digit growth was last seen in 2011; global user numbers are leveling off.
You’ve always been told to hope for the best and prepare for the worst. Better believe that those in telecommunications have been told the same thing.
Perhaps that’s why you’ve heard of “protected” and “unprotected” circuits.
