How NTC reduce cost by installing Google cache server in Nepal

How NTC reduce its cost with the installation of google cache server? 

 

Recently Google installed it’s cache server in Nepal at Internet Exchange Point of Nepal telecom (NTC).

NTC is the only and biggest internet service provider in Nepal. It has certain bandwidth limit which NTC have to pay. Let say for example NTC bought 500MBPS internet bandwidth, that means NTC has maximum capacity of 500MBPS to transfer data at a time. It gives services to its customers by dividing the internet bandwidth of 500MBps , let say for 1000 customers if it divide equally,  it would be (5000/1000)=500Kbps for each customer.

If  all the 1000 customers excess the internet at a time using its full capacity of 500kbps, then the maximum (1000*500kbps=500MBps) capacity of the NTC will be used up. If there are more customer added let say 100 more customer, total will be 1100, if they excess the the internet same time they can’t get full bandwidth what they have of (500kbps) so its divided as (500MBps/1100) = 363.64kbps per customer.

Regardless of your operating system or your ISP, it’s vital to ensure that you’re protected against any unwanted intruders. DDoS attacks, viruses, spyware, malware, rootkits, keyloggers – all of these and more are serious threats that could spoil your week somewhat – especially if your bank login details are being transmitted to people halfway across the globe without your knowledge.

For this reason, there are a lot of methods by which we can secure the safety of not only our computers, but those of our customers. That’s right – a ssl certificate is a major boost for companies attempting to sell products via the internet who want a high level of security for their customers, as it creates an encrypted link between someone’s browser and the web server hosting the site they’re shopping on. This means every single bit of data transferred between them remains completely private and integral. Read more…
