BlazeNet Infractructure

Network Architecture

BlazeNet prides itself on having engineered a reliable and redundant network which accommodates the high-availability demands of our customers' critical applications. We achieve this through a simple and scalable architecture designed to ensure maximum service availability for our customers. For performance and reliability, BlazeNet employs state-of-the-art equipment from Cisco Systems for all core systems. This includes BlazeNet's border and edge routers, the switching core, firewalls and load balancing gear.

BlazeNet's carrier-neutral facility provides our customers with numerous secure connections to the Internet backbone through several selected Tier I network providers. BlazeNet is connected to seven different fiber carriers who supply the facility through independent access points. BlazeNet then maintains various connections over divergent multi-gigabit paths to metropolitan peering points. Our multiple carrier network architecture creates real redundancy and ensures that customer traffic can reach its destination using the optimal upstream network. This offers significant advantages over the peering arrangements that a typical Tier 1 data center has. At BlazeNet, if any provider experiences downtime or any other problem, traffic is re-routed through other network carriers until the problem is resolved. Our network engineers utilize sophisticated route determination technology to constantly probe the Internet for packet loss and latency and then automatically re-route traffic around these areas.

Service Level Agreements

Our network redundancy allows BlazeNet to give its customers highly-competitive service level agreements, including a 99.9% uptime guarantee for our network. The natural redundancy in our network architecture and our network uptime guarantee provides significant advantages to our customers over other data centers.
