Incumbent telecommunications suppliers Telstra and Optus have been put on notice as the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) plans to unleash a tender for AU$4.5 million worth of telco services and products.
The nation's number two telco Optus today outlined a number of new and renewed enterprise customer wins as part of its quarterly financial results statement.
A group of telcos led by local broadband evangelist Paul Budde is pushing ahead with plans to link its combined infrastructure to form a national network for the purposes of providing high-speed broadband to regional areas.
Data centre and telco traffic peering specialist Equinix has extended network links to Melbourne and Brisbane, enabling organisations to connect back to its Sydney data centre.
A strong demand for peering services between ISPs has seen Internet peering facilitator PIPE Networks expand its Brisbane operations into four additional Australian cities.
Let's not go back to the bad old days where telco and vendor incumbents were unchallenged.
