So given the pants-on-fire growth in this business, and the disjoint ways
While this has been pretty much the MO of most folks in how network is built, but this doesn't have to remaint that way. One of the things that needs to be engineered into building and maintaining national/international backbones is traffic accounting to an arbitrary granularity that paves the way for better traffic engineering and bandwidth projections. There are already ample tools to to per-prefix matrix of traffic right now. Tying this in with good sales projections will alleviate much of the last minute fire fighting. This will most likely never be 100% accurate and precise, but there is no reason why we can't get a better handle on bandwidth forecasts. (say to 95% percentile) Furthermore, with the deployment of WDM and Internet core devices moving closer to the transmission gear, if you have access to fiber, getting more bandwidth may become as straightforward as using an additional wavelength on the ADM that your router's plugged into. -dorian
