Will You Add? - What's The Difference Between Tier-1-Tier-2-And Tier-3 Bandwidth Providers To Your Business?
"Moscow aside, if you look at central and eastern Europe, Bucharest is probably the biggest and most interesting opportunity for property investors right now," says Edit Vesser, corporate director for CB Richard Ellis in Bucharest in an article recently published by the esteemed Irish Times.In February 2005, I first alerted readers of Escape Artist to the incredible potential latent in the Eastern European country of Romania. Several readers who contacted me purchased land through a realtor that I ad

Running a Home Business? or Want To?Ask yourself... Can I be more effective? Do I need to improve my business focus? Do I know what's working and what isn't? Am I really ready to run with my business idea?Effective planning and research will help you tremendously.Unfortunately, it's all too easy to get deflected and distracted, especially on the 'net. Without really understanding what it's all about, can lead to frustration and disappointment."Tiers" in the telecom world tends to have multiple definitions, depending on who you ask. What tier a bandwidth carrier is, is loosely defined at best and everyone has their own opinion of what tier a carrier might be. Here is my opinion:
Tier-1: [may be considered an RBOC or LEC - Regional Bell Operating Company or Local Exchange Carrier]
Tier-1 is a network in which only settlement free peers and customers are serviced. The network operator pays for none of it's transit.
Tier-1 is the optimum network backbone for medium to large businesses with critical reliability, stability, and scalability requirements.
Tier-1 can be an advantage when it comes to handling DDoS attacks: if you ask/configure your Tier-1 provider to null-route an IP they will implement the null-route at their borders, so there is no point of saturation.
Examples of US Tier 1 carriers:
Qwest
AT&T (formerly SBC, Bell South, Southwestern Bell, Ameritech)

For those of us who love cars and are mechanically inclined starting a small business, which has to do with auto-maintenance, makes a lot of sense. Many folks would love to own their own business as part of their American Dream. The question is what type of business can we see ourselves enjoying and excelling at and how on Earth would we come up with the $500,000 to $1,000,000 to start an Auto Maintenance Shop? Even renting a bay and buying all the equipment can be costly and run $100,000 to $250,000.

Does this sound familiar? You have a newsletter that needs to go out in a few days, but you just can’t come up with a good article to write. You have a serious case of writer’s block. Or, you know you should be adding more content to your site on a regular basis to keep the search engines (and of course your visitors) happy, but you just can’t find the time to sit down and write articles every week. There’s an easy solution to both problems. Hire a ghostwriter to write the articles for you.Basically,

Tier-2: [may be considered a CLEC (Competitive Local Exchange Carrier); has their own network, but also resells tier 1]
Tier-2 is where the network operator buys all or some of it's transit from a Tier-1 and resells it.
Tier-2 can be an advantage if you need someone to provide quality bandwidth, and especially if your need is a single install location. If you buy from Tier-1 #1 in New York, and #1 has a problem with its Tier-1 #2 peering router in New York, then all your traffic from you to #2 may be affected. Your ability to shout at #1 and get them to fix it will be limited, especially if the problem is with #2's border router. A good Tier-2 will monitor its upstreams and their peering points for trouble, and take measures to ensure that it doesn't affect their customers. Even if you need multi-location installs, buying from a good Tier-2 can be useful.
A Tier-2 that only responds to severe problems (e.g. total outag
