AT&T Data Usage at SunFest Jumps 29 Percent, Thanks to COW
SunFest is one of the biggest, if not the biggest, event to hit West Palm Beach each year. This past weekend tens of thousands of music fans flocked downtown to take in all the sights and sounds of SunFest. That’s why the local AT&T network team fine-tuned its network ahead of the event by deploying a COW (or Cell on Wheels) to help ensure customers had a great experience and were able to share their favorite moments with family and friends. And based on the network numbers from the weekend, AT&T delivered on the big stage:
Total AT&T data usage was 3,990GB. 3,990GB is equal to more than 11.4M social media posts with photos.
AT&T had the greatest total data usage on Saturday, May 2, with more than 1,154GB crossing the company’s network.
Compared to last year’s SunFest event – AT&T data traffic was 29% greater in 2015.
AT&T often brings in mobile cell towers for events with large crowds that can lead to network congestion.
