Peering - What is it?
DACS IX Architect and DACS-NX’s President, John Hartlove says:
​
“Over the past decade our reliance on data has grown exponentially. As 5G and other new technologies emerge, and data continues to grow, we must ensure that nothing becomes a barrier to innovation. Be it bandwidth, latency, or network availability we take this step to make sure Baltimore, Orlando, or anywhere more capacity is needed - are on the forefront.”
