The Internet is beyond important.  We need air, water… Internet.  We can’t function without it.  We’re past the tipping point.  It’s the new geopolitical power card.

Applications are ravenous for data and network bandwidth, everything from infinite cloud storage and 8K Netflix to quantum computing and Bitcoin mining.  It’s hard to imagine how core networks and data centers can cope in the years to come.

Combine that with  increasingly faster devices, way more network connections and ultrafast access like Wifi 6 and 5G cellular and it’s hard to imagine how core networks and data centers can cope in the years to come.

Extensively used today is a buffered, multi-plane architecture that requires multiple hops to reach a destination.  This design is prone to internal congestion, which leads to highly variable latency, and constrains network throughput and scalability.  The internal complexity also makes it challenging to maintain and evolve.  And these networks use a lot of power hungry electronic components.

By contrast, the AcceleRoute network core is completely bufferless resulting in a single hop from edge to edge, with very low latency.  It also means traffic cannot congest inside the network and consequently the architecture can scale to very large capacities.  The simplified network structure also simplifies control and ease of maintenance.  And existing networks can interwork with AcceleRoute by configuring Access Nodes as gateways.
