MICHIGAN OPEN
ACCESS NETWORK
Establish Your Colocation Closer to the Edge
Connecting Michigan Providers
Previously located in specific network dense cities, Mi-OAN brings Carrier hotels closer to Michigan. These meeting points allow all interconnected carriers to save on transport costs and increase competition options in new areas.
The MI-OAN offers direct connection between cities instead of going to outside cloud providers, essentially creating a superhighway of connection to local Michigan businesses.
BENEFITS
Savings on Transport Costs
Edge computing provides better bandwidth and more power, which offers scalable, agile IT solutions that works within a hybrid or public/private cloud solution to help businesses
Increasing Options and Competition
Companies that operate as ISPs have become edge providers, and a few edge providers with substantial financial resources have become or intend to become ISPs
Access to Cloud Providers
Edge computing performs processing close to where the data originates or locally in an edge device. It greatly reduces the bandwidth needed to transmit it to the cloud or the corporate data center
Supported Infrastructure
Enhances resiliency by reducing a central point of failure, even when communication channels are slow, permanently available or temporarily down. Information from the edge will make its way back to the data center where connection is available
LONG HAUL REGENERATION
Accessible Communication Network
Managed Long Haul helps the frequency of shelters along the long-haul route by having the ability to add/drop leverages of local access to reach customers that were previously not possible.
