I just saw\u00a0Dyn\u2019s (formerly Renesys) \u201cBaker\u2019s Dozen\u201d article\u00a0<\/a>\u00a0for 2015. It\u2019s one of those little things that reminds me that our obsession with quality connectivity really does make a difference. The article describes Dyn\u2019s view of top Internet providers based on their own\u00a0Internet Intelligence \u2013 Transit<\/a>\u00a0product. Two of the providers that KanREN uses for three of our six upstream connections, Level(3) (KC and Wichita) and Telia Carrier (KC) were ranked #1 and #2 respectively. And a third, Hurricane Electric, made the cut\u00a0in the Baker\u2019s Dozen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

KanREN has a total of six commodity upstream connections spread over three of our backbone POPs. It\u2019s something most of our members probably don\u2019t think much about \u2014 go get some Internet, the carriers are all the same, right? Wrong. They\u2019re not. KanREN staff are constantly evaluating Internet providers. We balance several things in making our selections. We look at reliability, reachability, reputation, routing table analysis, applicability to our particular member base and of course cost. We work hard to balance all of these (and more) aspects in creating our portfolio of upstream providers to create the best possible end-user experience, while controlling costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By building our backbone into key facilities in Kansas City and Wichita State University, KanREN is able to leverage direct connections with nearly any provider out there \u2014 something you can\u2019t do unless you\u2019re in these key locations. Together, through KanREN, our members have access to a portfolio of Internet carriers that wouldn\u2019t be possible for them on their own. I\u2019m proud of our work in building our portfolio. This is likely another thing our members don\u2019t think much about \u2014 that\u2019s great, they don\u2019t need to, because we\u2019ve got them covered!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
