Cedexis Consumer Web Solutions

Maximize Your Infrastructure

Stale data, static rules, restrictive configuration options, manual procedures -- these are the blunt tools of an ineffective strategy. Cedexis provides the visibility and flexibility you've always dreamed of, and enables the next-generation strategies you need.


SLA Enforcement

Global performance can vary significantly even within a single country. Agent-based tools can provide misleading reassurances and mask problem areas. In order to truly ensure the performance and availability of your infrastructure, you need to know what your end-users are experiencing, worldwide, every minute of the day. Cedexis Pulse offers continuous, end-to-end monitoring of your content and applications from more than 24,000 networks round the world.


Infrastructure Planning

Confused by conflicting marketing claims? Tired of subjective analyst reports about 'core vision and the ability to transform'? When it comes to making effective decisions and driving effective strategies, nothing beats hard data. With over 34 billion measurements collected, Cedexis Radar provides IT organizations with the collective intelligence necessary to evaluate and compare a wide range of infrastructure options, from traditional datacenters and delivery networks to emerging cloud storage and cloud computing platforms.

Unlike agent-based solutions, Cedexis Radar can provide critical insights across platforms you may not even be using today. The results of such 'what if' analyses provide the means necessary to define where the bar should best be set for your content and applications.


Performance Optimizations

For years, configuration-based global server load-balancing (GSLB) and global traffic management (GTM) tools have forced organizations to adapt their business policies to fit within the limitations of their tools. Rules engines, command line interfaces, xml configurations... Each impose their own set of limitations. Each require special training to become a 'power user'.

At long last, Cedexis Openmix reinvents the norm by delivering the unlimited flexibility of data-driven, application-based load-balancing and traffic management. Cedexis Openmix makes it easy for customers to develop and deploy their own custom algorithms on Cedexis' globally-distributed, cloud-based platform. As a direct result, new IT strategies can now be safely evaluated in minutes, rather than days, and business policies are limited only by imagination.

More importantly still, by combining the real-time datafeeds of Pulse and Radar with the unprecedented flexibility of Openmix, the Cedexis platform guarantees self-adaptive, highly granular "good enough" strategies that optimize your cost/performance tradeoffs in the way you need them best.


Expense Management

If you consult all of the public infrastructure options, there are significant differences between providers in terms of cost, performance, availability, quality of service and global reach. Cedexis helps organizations establish "classes of service" for their various specific properties, and exert fine-grain, dynamic control over per-region policies.

For example :

  • Leverage multiple regional providers for in-country delivery, while leveraging one or more global providers for your international audience
  • Improve availability at manageable prices by establishing automatic failover rules between low-cost and high-availability infrastuctures
  • Balance back-end (origin) traffic for a fraction of the cost of other industry solutions
  • Limit Cloud or CDN usage to scheduled peak hours or unexpected flash-crowds

Alternatives

A growing number of Content Delivery Aggregators (CDA's) create "virtual CDN's" by purchasing, packaging, and reselling bandwidth agreements from multiple networks. Many organizations, however, prefer to negotiate directly with their primary providers, to ensure the lowest costs and maintain direct links to support.

Cedexis Openmix addresses this market reality by letting organizations develop their own multi-source strategies, encompassing a complex blend of datacenters, delivery networks, cloud computing and cloud storage infrastructures. While DNS-based traffic management has some limitations, in most cases Cedexis Openmix can help you enhance your global reach, ensure your global availability, realize substantial cost savings and increase your profits.

Furthermore, unlike many video-centric solutions, Cedexis brings these same benefits to HTTP and FTP downloads, application acceleration, whole site delivery, VoIP and VPN gateways, and a host of other IP-based traffic.
