[AusNOG] Transit options, 500mbit aggregate 95th, 5 POPs

[Oliver Ransom (Host Universal Pty Ltd)]

Hello,

I am shopping for quality transit options with an 'aggregate 95th'
service over the following 5 locations with 3 * starred being
connected from day 1 and the others to be connected within 6 months
of establishment. I already have a shortlist with some providers I
have spoken to but am hoping to discover some other options with
this request:
Equinix SY3 Sydney *
Equinix ME1 Melbourne
Colocity DC3 Adelaide (Morphett Street) *
NextDC P1 Perth *
NextDC B1 (and B2 down the track) Brisbane

I am looking for 500mbit initially with most traffic being in Sydney,
and there is strong potential for the total commitment to double every 8
to 12 months based on historic data.
Some things that are necessary/some notes:

- Dual stack ipv4/ipv6 BGP transit
- DDOS mitigation of some sort and/or automatic null routing after
  attack thresholds are reached, with automated notification of null
  routes taking place- Good blend of upstreams for diverse traffic sources; heavy focus on
  networks in Asia (so if your network brings all international traffic
  to Perth and Adelaide in from the East that is not  suitable)- Steady traffic 24/7 with minimal (not more than 20%) difference
  between peaks and troughs, inbound and outbound more or less equal- If you're using AAPT for domestic transit please advise what
  redundancy is in place as I don't consider them alone sufficient due
  to regular connectivity issues especially away from the East Coast- Contracts longer than 12 months are rarely of interest

If you sell transit and think you can offer something suitable I would
be interested to hear about your network and options off list.
Regards,
Oliver
