[discuss] [Internet Policy] Net Neutrality in the next Internet

Tue Mar 3 11:57:26 UTC 2015

A new IXP recently was established  in Florida.  Called FLIX.  I understand that Netflix is a member.  Moving content closer to the consumer.
This IX is likely to help provide more competition.
I am also hearing there are more states trying to create more bottom-up exchanges so that smaller ISPs and more content can reach users faster.

According to this architecture, if Netflix wishes to reduce delivery delays to a localized subscribers, they should establish data centres closer to those customers (where "close" is measured in terms of delay though the Internet).

Which very likely means something they already do, which is deploy or contract with CDN providers.
