A few years ago I had a couple boxes in a datacenter in Chicago that had
its traffic optimized by Internap. Latency wise, it was always the lowest
to my other applications, compared to other locations I had on-line. I am
not sure what other benefits it brought aside from lower latency. One thing

We currently utilize the Border6 solution on our network and are very happy

TL;DR: Not worth it unless you have only a few transit providers and are a
content-heavy network with little inbound traffic.
We used the Internap FCP for a long time (10 or so years). In general, we were
satisfied with it, but honestly, after not having it in our network for the
past year and
Border6 offers such an option based on prependings and bgp communities.
But honestly, I didn't test that feature yet. And I'm not that sure how
much sense it makes since it probably requires quite a lot global BGP
updates... makes routers even more busy than they are currently.

Hey Mike,
do you know route optimizers that actually do optimize inbound traffic?
We, at datapath.io, are currently working on this and could not find
another one that does it.
Best,
Sebastian

Just to be clear, Internap's solution doesn't use "more specifics" to steer
traffic. The mechanisms in place to protect yourself from normal route
leaking should apply just the same.

Also, please, if you use one of this sort of device filter your

Hi,
No particular experience with Internaps optimization...however I
wouldn't be that sure if I would use it within our networks, because you
always have the conflict of this not being their core business as they
want to sell their optimized IP transit.
However, some time ago we tried Border
