Internet traffic across UK broadband ISPs surged last night on the back of several Premier League Football matches, which were heavily streamed online via Amazon’s Prime Video<\/a> service. As a result, budget internet provider TalkTalk<\/a> saw record network traffic, which peaked at 8.1Tbps (Terabits per second).<\/p>\n

The new 8.1Tbps<\/strong> peak occurred at around 9pm last night (1st December 2021), which compares with their previous record of 7.6Tbps that was set back in December last year. Both records occurred on the back of football streaming, although last year’s peak was also given an additional boost by the release of several popular video game software updates, which triggered an additional surge in download activity.<\/p>\n

NOTE:<\/strong> Amazon<\/a> are due to host a further batch of “exclusive<\/em>” Premier League Football matches tonight, from 7pm, so we expect to see another busy evening.<\/div>\n

By comparison, most of the additional traffic generated last night occurred as a result of Amazon<\/a> live-streaming a multitude of football matches via their popular Prime Video<\/strong><\/a> service (i.e. Watford v Chelsea, Southampton v Leicester, West Ham v Brighton, Wolves v Burnley, Aston Villa v Man City and Everton v Liverpool).<\/p>\n

Phil Haslam, CTO of TalkTalk<\/a>, said: “Last night\u2019s network peak demonstrates that our appetite for data (and great sport) is showing no signs of slowing down. When Amazon<\/a> Prime streams football matches, it adds a big surge in demand on our network. That\u2019s because our customers stream the action in real time, and Amazon Prime show multiple games simultaneously so more people watch at once. The last thing any fan wants is to miss their team score, so our brilliant engineering teams worked through the night this week to make sure our network ran smoothly<\/em>.”<\/p>\n

The ISP has also issued a chart of last night’s network traffic, which shows the Tbps traffic rate on the left and the time at the bottom (we assume they were too busy to bother writing the labels in themselves). In our experience, the different coloured bands in such charts tend to reflect different types of network traffic, but sadly TalkTalk<\/a> hasn’t identified these.<\/p>\n

\"talktalk-1st-dec-2021-network-traffic\"<\/p>\n

A roughly similar surge can be seen by viewing yesterday’s aggregated traffic data from the London Internet Exchange<\/a> (LINX), which handles a key chunk of UK and global data traffic through their switches via nearly a thousand members (broadband ISPs, mobile operators etc.). Total aggregated traffic hit a peak of about 6.5Tbps at around 8:40pm, which is noticeably higher than prior peaks in the previous 6 days.<\/p>\n

NOTE:<\/strong> LINX does not provide a complete overview of the internet traffic flow from all ISPs (e.g. BT<\/a> alone sees much bigger traffic peaks of c.20Tbps), but they do give a useful indication of how much extra traffic is flowing around as trends seen on other networks tend to show up in their data.<\/div>\n

\"LINX-1st-dec-2021-network-traffic\"<\/p>\n

Most ISPs employ Content Delivery Networks<\/strong> (CDN) to help manage the load from such events, which caches popular content closer in the network to end-users (i.e. improves performance without network strain) and lowers the provider\u2019s impact on external links.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
