NANOG Meeting Presentation Abstract

Aftershocks from the Taiwan Earthquakes: Shaking up Internet transit in Asia
Meeting:	NANOG42
Date / Time:	2008-02-19 12:00pm - 1:00pm
Room:	Imperial Ballroom
Presenters:	Speakers: Martin A. Brown, Renesys Corporation Martin has been working with IP networking under Linux for more than ten years. As part of the Renesys development team, he works in BGP data analysis. His expertise involves OSS development in systems integration and infrastructure particlurly in networking contexts. Former work has involved network security, firewalls, virtual private networks, quality of service and managing and scaling distributed systems. He holds an M.A. in German from the University of Wisconsin, Madison.
Abstract:	Large earthquakes hit the Luzon Strait south of Taiwan on 26 December 2006, severing 7 of 9 submarine cables passing through the area. We briefly review the immediate impact of this outage with respect to the countries and providers most seriously affected. Then we examine the longer term impact of the quake by studying the change in Asian provider rankings one year later. These changes are quite significant for a number of providers and are the direct result of major customer wins or losses. We provide explicit examples for some of the larger changes and draw some conclusions about the future of Internet transit in Asia.
