Problem
Online services face challenges in maintaining high availability and optimal performance due to reliance on single content delivery network (CDN) vendors, leading to potential outages, performance bottlenecks, and vendor lock-in. Distributing dynamic traffic across multiple vendors while maintaining consistent security and edge services is complex and costly.
Solution
IO River provides a virtual edge solution that unifies security, traffic control, and serverless compute services across multiple edge platforms, improving the reliability, performance, and cost-efficiency of online services. The platform enables dynamic traffic management, allowing users to split dynamic traffic across multiple vendors without compromising edge services like WAF, rate limiting, and bot detection. IO River's GlobalView technology analyzes traffic data from end-user to data center, providing insights for informed decision-making and faster issue resolution. The solution offers a single interface to orchestrate multiple vendors, simplifying implementation, monitoring, and traffic routing.
