Case Study: New York Yankees achieve scalable, always-on connectivity with Lumen Network-as-a-Service

New York Yankees power scalable 100G connectivity with Lumen

The New York Yankees faced the challenge of managing rapid shifts in network bandwidth demand, from routine operations to sold-out games and major events. Their previous fixed-capacity network forced a costly tradeoff between over-provisioning and scaling for peak demand, while their critical operations across Yankee Stadium and their Tampa data center required always-on reliability. They turned to Lumen Technologies for a solution using Lumen Network-as-a-Service.

Lumen implemented its consumption-based NaaS solution, including Internet On-Demand and Ethernet Fabric Connect, to link the two locations. This provided the Yankees with programmable, scalable connectivity and two diverse 100G connections. The results included greater cost efficiency, always-on reliability, and a future-ready foundation for new digital initiatives, providing a resilient network for their world-class brand.
