Hurricane Electric – Roots and History Founded 14 years ago - ISP & datacenter operator
Roots within the Silicon Valley high-tech community Nationwide network in 1999 Starts IPv6 native and tunnel connectivity in 2001 European expansion in 2005 Purchased 206,000 sq ft datacenter building in 2006 Native IPv6 backbone in Q1 2007 Ranked #1 IPv6 backbone for BGP adjacencies in Q1 2008 Expands IPv6 TunnelBroker to nine US & European cities
Supports and sponsors global open-software projects

Hurricane Electric – Where to peer next? Simply put:
We only expand the network into IPv6 enabled NAP/IX’s!
So where next?
AtlantaIX (Atlanta, Georgia) TorIX (Toronto, Canada) … and more

Hurricane Electric – Network Philosophy Single hardware partner – Foundry Networks
20 months into IPv6 native network deployment Partnered to “iron-out” operational issues Efficient per-port costs (at 1Gbps & 10Gbps) Full sflow data vs. “nothing” on “C” & “J” platform
MPLS capable POP to POP to POP Provides granular control of network bandwidth Clean network design end-to-end – no legacy elements
Scalable!
