Avelacom has added a new PoP in Ashburn, offering direct connectivity to Amazon AWS’s US-East-1 region. The expansion gives them 65.3ms round-trip latency between AWS Ashburn and AWS Dublin, which apparently is a key cryptocurrency arbitrage route. Avelacom has made similar tweaks to its low latency capabilities in Dublin, London, Frankfurt, Tokyo, and Hong Kong.
FirstLight has expanded its cloud communications capabilities with two new services. They have introduced Accession Meeting and Cloud Contact Center in an effort to better serve enterprises up in the northeastern US.
