This is a pre-project discovery question... any help would be greatly
appreciated.
We have upcoming partnerships (opportunities) in APAC. The original plan was to
place the hub in Singapore. Just weeks before everyone was ready to begin the
RFP, it turns out that one of our partner businesses owns a Co-Lo in India. Not
sure what the name or the size of this business is yet. While it would be nice
to take advantage of this, we have potential partnerships in China and other
areas of APAC in development... we are hesitating to put our APAC hub in India
just based on latency and where the undersea cables run.
So, I'm reaching out to NANOG... some of you guys have either worked with
businesses (or work in provider space) in both India and Singapore (and
elsewhere, such as Japan). Is there a clear reason to use/not-use India as a
hub? What would the pros/cons be? Is there a clear advantage to using Singapore
as we originally planned?
Again, we appreciate the feedback.
