The Tipping Point: Managing the Cost of Data Center Interconnect in the AI Era
4 min read
AI is starting to push data center interconnect (DCI) capacity towards higher speeds. Since the cost structure of DCI is usually based on bandwidth usage, costs will quickly multiply, as enterprises will need more circuits to support increased capacity demands. A less costly alternative for enterprises is to lease dark fiber from service providers and create their own private network.
