The pressures of supply chain disruptions, electricity price volatility, and government intervention are impacting prices in the global colocation market.
As we continue to move through 2023, here are a couple of trends to keep an eye on.
As 2023 comes to a close, we’re one step closer to PTC ’24—and TeleGeography's annual workshop on all things telecom.
Next month, Brianna Boudreau, Jon Hjembo, and Tim Stronge will return to the PTC stage to share insight on the last year in pricing, interconnection, submarine cables, bandwidth, and more.
After chronicling the impact of global supply chain disruptions in our 2023 session, it’s time to assess whether we’re back to normal, and what the new normal is.
If you’ve checked out our International Voice Report, you probably noticed that the data carefully distinguishes between retail and wholesale traffic, and between wholesale and direct traffic.
What's the difference?
By our 2023 estimates, the Washington metropolitan area—or more specifically Northern Virginia (NoVA)—dominates as the world's largest data center market.
With more than 22 million square feet of operational capacity, NoVA is 30% larger than the next-biggest data center hub, Tokyo.
What else does the most recent update to our Data Center Research Service tell us?
With Capacity Middle East just two months away, it's time to get excited for the region's leading digital infrastructure conference.
The 2024 agenda is poised to tackle major themes like market developments, network transformation, subsea cables, data centers, AI and future tech, and more.
It’s all happening February 6-8, 2024 in Dubai—and we've got a discount code to share.
Recently, we’ve been closely monitoring the intensifying pressures of insatiable demand and supply constraints in key data center markets.
Supply constraints have come in the form of both short-term and long-term challenges.
In the short term, supply chain disruptions have hindered development timelines. On the long-term side, regulators and utility providers have begun taking a hard look at the data center sector and how to grow it sustainably going forward. In some cases, these entities have severely disrupted development during the interim period.
None of these challenges have been resolved. And as we move through 2023, another major disruptive component has been added to the mix—the accelerated growth of generative Artificial Intelligence (AI).
Wouldn't it be great to be fully retired before your 30th birthday?
Because they are engineered with a minimum design life of 25 years, it's common for the submarine cables that keep our world connected to experience this luxury.
Let’s talk about why, and what happens to cables after they reach retirement age.
Brazil’s multi-band 5G spectrum auction drew to a close in November 2021, generating total commitments of BRL47.2 billion ($8.5 billion).
The auction process attracted bids from a mixture of major players like Telefonica Brasil (Vivo), Claro Brasil, and TIM Brasil, established regional players such as Algar Telecom and Sercomtel, and a number of lesser-known participants.
Two years later, we examine the respective progress of Brazil’s 5G licensees.
To spread some cheer and celebrate the beginning of the holiday season, we’re dubbing this month’s reading list the “good news edition.”
Here are three feel-good telecom headlines that you can be thankful for while waiting in line for those Black Friday deals.
I'm back with a new episode of TeleGeography Explains the Internet.
In the hot seat this time: Nokia's Paul Unbehagen. Paul has a deep history in the networking world, so he approaches his role at Nokia—NE Americas CTO—from the perspective of a network engineer.
Although our main topics this week are enterprise cloud and right-sizing cloud utilization, we use those as a springboard into many topics circling the state of the network in 2023.
