Local content,
local pipes.
AS40271 is an opt-in caching & content cooperative for local eyeball ISPs in the San Francisco Bay Area. We host the caches; you save the transit bill.
Local, sustainable, organic … bits. Now with extra cache.
An off-net cache, run by people you can email.
SFMIX runs caches for the big content sources at our exchange. Local eyeball ISPs peer with AS40271 and pull popular traffic — Google, Apple, Microsoft, Steam, Netskrt — directly off the cache, not from your transit provider.
