some interesting Internet stats for you - are you the same?

Hi folks,

 

we've been using some new network monitoring statistics for our core network and thought we'd share it with you if its of interest as it may help you plan for your bandwidth usage in the future.

 

We just took 2 x private 10gbit Interconnects into Google (not peering or via transit this is a direct physical cable).

 

Top destinations so far this month (excluding our non hosted customers)

 

1. Google (inc youtube) - 135 Terabytes (135,000 Gigabytes ish!)

2. Akamai / Microsoft - 69 Terabytes

3 Apple - 25 Terabytes

 

Just goes to show the change in usage patterns. I expect these to go up more and more as people migrate to Office 365, Google apps and Ipad deployments.

 

Enjoy

Those figures roughly mirror our own top domain hits. A lot to Amazon too.

This week Amazon is in at number 4. Probably to do with a load of Xmas shopping and black Friday I'm guessing as its usually a bit further down the list......

Some Education sites base their content on Amazon, so it is often up there.

Is the Amazon include the AWS stuff or pure amazon.com shopping? (just being nosey!)
