We're sure many of our readers are gearing up for Capacity Eurasia 2025. Let us help you prepare for the main event in Istanbul. Here's what to know, when to register, and what topics to brush up on in advance.
Industry conferences are like orchestras: they bring together many sounds which may be hard for the untrained ear to differentiate.
We at TeleGeography are well-equipped to listen to the many melodies sung at telecom industry gatherings. Most recently, I joined colleagues in São Paulo to discuss regional trends at the Capacity LATAM event.
Datacloud Global Congress returns June 3-5, 2025, in Cannes.
And we have a birthday to celebrate. The event is recognizing 20 years as the premier global event for data center, cloud, AI, and investment leaders.
A few weeks ago, I returned to sunny Honolulu for TeleGeography’s annual telecom trends workshop at PTC.
As usual, Brianna Boudreau explored global pricing trends, and Jon Hjembo shared insights from the data center world.
A bit unusual was the name of my segment: Mother Earth, Motherboard. This title was actually inspired by an article written in 1996:
What makes a city a hub? And what makes a hub healthy?
Before we answer these questions, we must acknowledge that the interconnection market is not a homogeneous thing. It's an ecosystem comprised of numerous critically interdependent parts, much like a body or a machine.
In 2024, we saw many telecom headlines in the mainstream media. There were stories on the evening news about submarine cables relating to geopolitics, network outages, and even the potential impact of AI.
At this year’s Pacific Telecommunications Council conference, I thought it would be interesting to take a closer look at how those headlines actually impacted the market in terms of pricing.
Submarine networks enable uninterrupted connectivity among geographically dispersed physical data centers, effectively forming a global data center without walls.
Substantial investments driving the swift growth of AI infrastructure in both existing and new data centers are set to significantly influence data center interconnect (DCI) networks, which are essential for the success of AI applications and use cases.
Research Director Alan Mauldin recently joined Ciena’s Brian Lavallée for a live webinar exploring these technical and strategic drivers transforming the AI landscape.
Ah, São Paulo. A critical market for Latin American connectivity (just ask our Market Connectivity Score), and the perfect location for Capacity LATAM 2025.
With February right around the corner, many of us are gearing up to celebrate 20 years of Capacity Middle East.
The 2025 conference—held February 4-6 in Dubai—will tackle big topics like how the Middle East is preparing for AI, and how the industry recovered from February’s Red Sea cable cuts.
TeleGeography’s Paul Brodsky will lead a panel focused on the latter, looking back at the immediate implications of the cuts, and how different parties rerouted.
