Traditionally peering happens between large players in the Internet market such as Telcos and ISPs, however there are also benefits for large sources or sinks of traffic to peer at a peering point for the same reasons as an ISP (it reduces their reliance on purchased transmit). Organisations that need to be multihomed may also choose to connect to their providers at a peering point.
