Bill Norton, Equinix
This 90 minute slot pulls the peering community together "in the round" for a discussion of the top issues or pain points that we all face. From the perennial discussion of peering vs. transit to the capacity issues thwarted by the lack of standards for hi bandwidth pipes, this interactive session will solicit ideas and experiences from the group collective and document them for the broader community.
