Aussie Broadband has announced that it is expanding its local Netflix cache by adding 1Tbps of capacity.
In a blog post, the company stated that it aims to increase the network’s total capacity for Netflix content by almost 140%, which would enable it to handle tens of thousands of additional simultaneous streams for users.
The servers for the cache are being installed and commissioned, and the move is part of the company’s growth in its suite of on-net caches.
Aussie Broadband directly peers with multiple major content distribution networks, including Akamai, Amazon, Cloudfront, and Netflix, among others. The cache capacity upgrades are part of a broader capacity upgrade project, which also includes additional inter-capital transmission capacity, Google interconnection capacity, and extra international capacity via Singapore.
