Network access provider Openreach<\/a> (BT<\/a>) has just informed ISPreview.co.uk that yesterday’s launch of Sony’s new PlayStation 5 video game console, including its various associated internet downloads and patches, resulted in data traffic across their national UK network reaching a total of 161PB (PetaBytes).<\/p>\n

Openreach<\/a> typically supplies a large number of broadband ISPs across the country and as such their network often sees the impact of big events. Despite this it should be said that Thursday’s (19th November 2020) traffic is still lower than their previous peak of 174PB on 10th November. The prior surge was triggered by a combination of events, such as the release of Microsoft’s rival Xbox Series X and S, a Call of Duty patch, and more.<\/p>\n

NOTE:<\/strong> 1 PetaByte is equal to 1,000 TeraBytes (TB) or 1,000,000 GigaBytes (GB).<\/div>\n

\"openreach_traffic_14-19_november_2020\"<\/p>\n

Prior to all this the previous busiest days were Wednesday 5th August (193PB) and Thursday 9th July (192PB), thus we’re still a long off setting a new daily record.<\/p>\n

Colin Lees, CTIO of Openreach<\/a>, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“The release of the much awaited new PlayStation 5 on Thursday (19 Nov) saw a rise in traffic across our network with more than 161 Petabytes being used \u2013 as gaming fans unable to buy the new console in physical stores because of lockdown, have turned to the internet to place orders. The surge is just short of the 174 Petabytes consumed across our network last Tuesday (Nov 10) with the release of the new Xbox Series X. By our estimates that\u2019s an average weekday consumption of around 164 Petabytes (Friday 13 Nov).<\/p>\n

To give you a sense of scale \u2013 one Petabyte equals one million Gigabytes. That\u2019s more than four times the amount of data in the entire written works of mankind from the beginning of recorded history, in all languages!<\/p>\n

Openreach has seen consistent rises in online traffic throughout the Coronavirus pandemic, with millions more people are working from home and spending time online. We plan all the time for potential spikes in usage, especially when we might expect large numbers of people to go online and start using data simultaneously. And given millions of homes and businesses across the UK could still upgrade to faster, more reliable services over our network, it\u2019s always worth checking what\u2019s available in your areas using our online postcode checker https:\/\/www.openreach.com\/fibre-broadband.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
