Zare bought bandwidth.co.uk
Such things happen rarely, bandwidth.co.uk was their main supplier and Zare / Hydra Communications bought it

Best of luck to them moving forward!
Wonderful!
Congratulations!
Congrats to all @ Zare ;-)
Nice. Congrats!
Congratulations! June has certainly been a busy month for UK providers
Congratulations! Awesome @zare, looking forward to try out the AMS location
Thanks everyone!
Hi Harry @Zare. We're really proud of you. We made the right decision. Congrats.
Congratulations !
Are they still single homed?
Is the /s missing?

no they have never been single homed.

@tr1cky was clearly talking about Zare network.
They had only 1 upstream, Bandwidth.co.uk, which they peered with in 1 single location. I would not call that single-homed.
How would you call it then ?
Are your customers that use their own ASN and BGP within your colocation space single-homed too ?
Would they also be single-homed if they did not use their own ASN, but you announced their space for them instead ?
Yes, that’s the definition - you’re either multihomed or you’re singlehomed.
Single or multi.
You still haven’t answered my question.
Ok - fair enough. But in this case it does not make any difference.
It does, one either runs a network or doesn’t. In this particular case you can’t really say it was not, given how, for example, the building in Bristol was connected. It does make a difference, the network design tells you a lot about the business principles and allows you to set your expectations.
I completely don’t understand your reason for going off topic here, unless it’s to troll.
Saw the news on twitter. Cool stuff.
What took you so long @Clouvider. You were 13 comments late. You really didn't have to wait for someone else to raise his shoulder to put the gun on
To be fair there's a big difference between single homed cogent and single homed to your colo vendor who is multihomed with significant peering.
Grow up.
this is what single homed looks like
Looks more like 0.5-homed to me
.... If I grow up more, it will become worse.
When trolls grow up, they don't become better people. They just become either elder trolls or a file of bones.
