servershed network
We run
our own multihomed BGP4 network, giving us multiple
connections to different carriers. We ensure that we
have connectivity out of the datacenter over different
physical fiber lines and terminating into different
datacenters - in the past we have seen our competitors
networks go down when they have had multiple providers
leaving the building over the same fiber or terminating
into the same datacenter which had an outage.
Having multiple upstream providers gives us the
redundancy if a failure occurs at one upstream, traffic
can take alternate routes seamlessly.
