Integrius Secure Cloud-based Service Platform

Integrius works as a platform provider, securing the communications and works as a base for external value-added services (VAS).

Integrius works as a common platform for both securing Internet access with protection of the end-users personal integrity and as a base for cloud-based value-added services. Together this forms a walled garden infrastructure, meaning that everything inside is secured and gives the users a predictable experience.

Scalable, highly available load balancing

The Integrius platform has multiple features to ensure scalability and global load balancing. We are using both tradition techniques and newer high-performing DHT-solutions. There is no single point of failure.

It is built as a multitenant architecture where all instances are hosted as one shared physical infrastructure. This ensures that all users can benefit from advanced security, high availability (HA) and global load balancing. The impact of Denial of Service (DoS) and Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks are reduced by this architecture.

Security

Security and protection of the users personal integrity is one of the key aspects of the Integrius platform. It is built from the ground up to be secure by design.

Authentication

Authentication is handled through external APIs, making it possible to tailor the solution to perfectly match any needs. Choices include all from simple passwords to strong hardware based multi-factor authentications that integrates seamlessly with existing solutions.

Content caching

Transparent content caching can be enabled for both static content and for peer-to-peer (P2P) to accelerate content delivery, increase Quality of Experience (QoE), reduce latencies and cut traffic cost.

It is estimated that P2P traffic accounts for up to 38% of all Internet traffic and that 75% of the P2P content is accessed multiple times.

Key benefits:

  • Reduced operating cost with less bandwidth usage
  • Higher user experience by faster response times

Services

The Integrius platform forms a backbone for Value-added Services (VAS). These can take the form of external Software as a Service (SaaS), such as e-mail, secure on-line storage and Business Support Systems (BSS) or as services integrated in the platform, such as antivirus, access control, stronger encryption and mobility features.

Key benefits:

  • New business opportunities and new revenue streams
  • Shared authentication gives better usability
  • Services can take advantage of the scalable features of the Integrius platform

Multimedia

We have built the Integrius platform to be versatile enough to fit almost any need. A modern multimedia platform require that the Quality of Service (QoS) is tightly controlled and efficient load balancing and routing is needed to minimize high traffic costs.

The Integrius platform can use advanced caching to minimize traffic and reduce delays. Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) is used to both provide Quality of Service (QoS) and Quality of Experience (QoE). This in combination with encryption, authentication and integration with 3rd-party Digital Rights Management (DRM) as well as a walled garden extending to the end-users, protecting the content in IPTV, live streaming, Video on Demand (VoD) and Personal Video Recorders (PVR).

Key benefits:

  • High Quality of Service (QoS) and high Quality of Experience (QoE)
  • Efficient usage of infrastructure and load balancing cuts operating costs
  • Content can be protected with DRM
