[ For content origins and edges ]
Origin → edge fan-out, no carrier in the middle.
Content delivery and streaming workloads have a profile that does not care about average sustained throughput — they care about peak burst, eyeball proximity and the cost of the egress curve.
BareFABRIC Metro lets you fan content from a single origin at THG1 out to edge cabinets at AM7, Nikhef and the Greenhouse cluster — one EVPN, no metro carrier in between. DFIX peering reaches Dutch eyeball networks directly. AMS-IX wholesale through Netrouting AS6206 reaches the rest of the European internet from the same building.
Cabinets are sized for 20 kW air-cooled, with on-call remote hands for fleet maintenance and capacity reservations against the Phase 2 build for growth.
Operational decisions that fit content delivery.
The platform is the same. These are the choices we made for the CDN and streaming profile.
AMS-IX wholesale
AMS-IX wholesale through Netrouting AS6206. The route table you see is the route table you get; commodity-priced for customers moving real bandwidth.
Origin → edge fan-out
BareFABRIC Metro stitches an L2 EVPN between THG1 and any other fabric facility. Content fan-out without a metro carrier hand-off.
High-density cabinets
Up to 20 kW per cabinet air-cooled. Sealed cold-aisle, A+B feeds. Capacity reservations against the Phase 2 build for growth.
On-call remote hands
Drive maintenance, optic swaps and pre-staging covered by contracted remote hands. The same engineers handle escalations end-to-end.
Burst-friendly billing
BareFABRIC Port and DF Transit are sized to absorb burst traffic — commits are calculated on the 95th percentile, not on average throughput. No unexpected overage charges when a content launch lands.
