(08/10/2015) ATLDC Finishes Expansion to 55MMR




ATLDC has completed an expansion of its connection capacity to the 55 Marietta MMR operated by Bank Building Limited Partnerships.

ATLDC/TULIX has added two twelve strand Single Mode fiber runs between the Data Center and the MMR. This allows for the addition of up to twelve additional Internet Service Providers to ATLDC’s blended network. It can also be used to provide clients with direct cross connects if needed.

“This addition allows us, especially with our latest switch upgrade, to add twelve new ISPs.’ Announced Tom Burling with ATLDC, ‘It is our current target to have four of those in place before the end of the year. We can now also offer direct cross connects to the service providers the MMR has in place”

ATLDC/TULIX continues to grow and continues to add more and more bandwidth capacity. Currently Level 3, Telia Sonera, Cogent and GTT all have a presence in the data center and are a part of the network. Additionally, other providers are offering direct cross connects to various clients. As the number of ISPs in the mix expands ATLDC/TULIX can not only provide more bandwidth, but is less dependent upon any single ISPs performance.

“We are making a deliberate effort to put in place a network that is immune to disruption. We have emphasized the creation of multiple physical paths into the data center and multiple carriers, dependent on none,” continued Burling.

ATLDC has also enabled IPV6 recently in its continuing list of network improvements to offer better, fuller service to its partners.

There is also an ongoing project to further improve the switching infrastructure. ATLDC recently added a CISCO Nexus 7000 to its internal structure allowing even more enhanced switching capabilities. With a new CISCO CRS and CISCO Nexus ATLDC/TULIX has not only improved the performance of its ability to handle traditional traffic and its media streaming unit; but has also set the stage for a major launch and expansion of its Cloud capabilities.


The CISCO CRS is a dramatic step forward in network performance.

“To deliver video, cloud, and mobile services effectively, service providers need to migrate their 10G network infrastructures to 100G and beyond. They also recognize the importance of scaling economically and quickly adapting to topology shifts.

What's the best way to do all this? With an elastic core that's intelligent, programmable, and scalable. An elastic core with the Cisco Carrier Routing System (CRS-X), which can:

-Deliver continuous operations at 400 Gbps per slot
-Offer industry-leading scale from a single chassis to a multichassis system
-Support 100G speeds and beyond using programmable Cisco nLight Technology
-Combine intelligent IP, lean core transit, and optical transport services
-Improve network monetization through intelligent Layer 4-7 services”

CISCO SYSTEMS CRS Features and Capabilities

ATLDC/TULIX is committed to improving quality and performance for all aspects of its Customer’s needs and will continue to expand its capacity and upgrade its technology.

When it Comes to Network - More is Better


Posted on July 27, 2015

PARDON OUR MESS! For the next few days we are installing new conduit and fiber. This will be providing further connectivity to the MMR at 55 Marietta. We are pulling 24 pair allowing for the addition of twelve new ISPs into the blend. ATLDC is planning on having an additional four 10 Gbps ISP connections lit for service before the end of the year.

To help accomplish this, and to further our diversity of path and homing, we are installing this fiber into the new MMR at 55 being sponsored by the building ownership in their continuing efforts to make this an ever more attractive carrier hotel.

This puts ATLDC with four distinctly different physical paths into the center. This provides even more redundancy in case a single path be interrupted. This is part of our effort to provide an ever more reliable and higher performing network service to our clients.

ATLDC/Tulix Systems Announces the Launch of it's New 'Carrier Grade' Network Configuration


ATLDC has upgraded its internal architecture so that all edge devices and first line switches including the interconnecting architecture are all 10 Gbps, with 10 Gbps ports available to any Client application. ATLDC has multiple 10 Gig connections to international backbones to ensure uptime. These connections are provided by TeliaSonera (which includes a primary direct link to their European backbone), Level 3 Communications (recognized as one of the premier backbones in the North and South American continents), GTT and Cogent Communications.

ATLDC is multihomed, diverse path and carrier neutral. Main center primary fiber is now SMF OM3 and 4, connected at 10Gbps. ATLDC uses Cisco CRS LCC and Cisco Catalyst 68xx-XLs as edge devices and uses Cisco 65xx, Sup 720 3BXLs (most DC's use this as their edge) for internal switching. ATLDC is connected in the 55 Marietta MMR, the 56 Marietta (TELX) building and directly connected to national ISPs. ATLDC uses Tier 1 providers exclusively. All network components are programmed as hot failover. This gives ATLDC a 'carrier grade' infrastructure.



ATLDC not only has multiple 10 Gbps connections to the Internet, we also use a 10 Gbps infrastructure internally between our edge devices (most data centers only provide 1 or 2 Gbps) and switches. This provides top speeds to our individual clients.ATLDC continues to expand the capacity of its internet connection footprint. Currently having 40 + Gbps capacity ATLDC is arranging 30 more. Current usage stands at an average of 10 Gbps. ATLDC's goal is to keep a minimum N+3 network configuration.ATLDC uses Internap FCPs and Noction route management to insure optimal routing. These devices route traffic based both on speed of delivery (milliseconds) and quality of delivery (packet loss). This technology determines the fastest route by which to deliver content to a recipient as opposed to accepting standard provider routes.ATLDC is fed by four different geographically unique fiber connections. This prevents service interruption should any single path be damaged for any reason.
