Google, Amazon, Apple, Facebook, Yahoo, and Level 3 Communications have built data centers to store all forms of communication, voice, video, and data ( facts & figures, images, documents, or any printed word). All this stored information is then processed and analyzed to be made readily available for on demand viewing by anyone, anywhere, on any device, on any wireless last mile network.
This is where Level 3 enters the picture, big time, they have the massive worldwide fiber network (footprint/reach) in place to accommodate all these data centers, when they want to connect to the world's Internet. All these data centers are rendered useless oasis islands, until they have the ability to be connected to the Internet via Level 3's fiber. There is only one premier global fiber backbone network built to scale and has the reach to distribute all forms of content. It is one network connecting us all.
The Provisioning Network, that has the ability to serve and protect a networked world. All data centers will need to rely on Level 3 in order to move all that stored content to the eyes and ears. The combination of a private line and security protection offered by Level 3 services, makes it a formidable player who can take market share in the enterprise and government sectors, by plugging in Ethernet cords to make more and more buildings go online.
