Numaria's network is designed to carry a variety of traffic
with expectations of service that vary from
application to application. In the past, all
data applications used a QoS a (Quality of
Service) strategy called "best effort."
Using this QoS strategy, network operations
were limited to providing Service Level Agreements
(SLAs) based solely on general availability
of and reachability through the infrastructure,
and not on how well applications performed
within the infrastructure. However, this model
is quickly becoming obsolete.
Today's applications range
from high-bandwidth file transfers needing
networks that can carry large amounts of data,
to interactive, low-bandwidth, low latency
"chat" applications, and real-time
applications like multimedia and IP telephony
that require predictable delay characteristics
from the network. Voice over IP (VoIP) is
a major component of the new "converged"
data network infrastructure that promises
a new set of applications and services. Even
games are now creating demand for QoS as,
all other things being equal, network performance
can make the difference between the thrill
of victory and the agony of defeat.
Numaria provides a complete
solution, our network is designed to offer
QoS using a differentiated service model architecture.
In particular, Numaria offers:
- High performance switching/routing platforms
- Wirespeed performance with features
enabled
- A comprehensive QoS framework
- Policy-based network management
Numaria's network delivers
QoS by integrating wire-speed Layer 2, 3,
and 4 switching with policy-based traffic
classification, prioritization, and routing.
A non-blocking switch fabric ensures our Network
will not only keep up with today's bandwidth-hungry,
delay-sensitive applications, but will future-proof
your network equipment investment. Because
we can do ASIC based routing all the way to
Layer 4, we can read deeper into the packet,
traffic can be identified, classified, prioritized,
and routed in hardware at the application
level. This enables Numaria to provide differentiated
service with real-time traffic such as gaming,
or running latency-sensitive applications.
