usually the logistics and business models of traditional CLS and DC are
different (Bill Woodcock laid it out).
a few years ago i built a model for SWIFT that provided for dynamic
remapping of lambda in the event of backhoe fade.  Not exactly your DC,
neutral IX form factor, but met the need at the time.  I can dig up the DoT
presentation if there is interest.

Hey there

I have been putting my thoughts on Infrapedia blog and sharing with folks
like

https://www.infrapedia.com/post/top20cities-datacenters

I am working on a new article and this time my topic will be looking at
cable landing stations(cls). Do you consider cable landing stations as a
datacenter? Do you have any experience deploying a pop in CLS? Are you able
to share (on or off record) your experience which I can refer as your
experience (good or bad) why deploying a pop inside a CLS is good or bad
idea. Any additional comments..

I am not a big fan of CLS deployments. They have limited networks ( like
only carriers and no eyeballs) and very expensive connectivity (usually)

Thank you in advance sharing your experience

Mehmet
