InterNAP has made a science out of developing technologies, techniques and services to deliver Internet packet data from point to point in the fastest and most reliable way possible, using existing Internet backbone infrastructure. InterNAP's solution to slow Internet performance is the P-NAP (Private Network Access Point). The P-NAP largely bypasses the public NAPs and private peering points, sending customer data along the shortest, most direct path across the Internet. P-NAP customers in effect ?cut ahead in line? - bypassing the often-congested public exchanges and private peering points - past other data being transferred across conventional Internet infrastructure. The P-NAP sends customer data out the correct Internet backbone immediately, right at our P-NAP, rather than at a randomly chosen public NAP or private peering point like other Internet access providers. For InterNAP customers, the optimizing effect of our proprietary network architecture and advanced routing technologies dramatically boost performance in both directions. Utilizing our proprietary network architecture and advanced routing technologies, we are able to route, or transfer, data to and from businesses that are connected to one or more of our P-NAPs, in a manner that minimizes the use of congested public exchanges and private peering points. This optimal routing of data traffic over the multiplicity of networks that comprise the Internet enables higher transmission speeds, lower instances of data packet loss and greater quality of service. INTERNAP TECHNOLOGY ADVANTAGE While this sounds simple, none of this would be possible were it not for two extremely unique ingredients: the most direct, full transit connectivity to major global Internet backbones and proprietary network architecture and advanced routing technologies. The direct connections into major global Internet backbones include OC3 and DS3 connections to UUNet, Sprint, Cable & Wireless, GTE (BBN), Digex (Intermedia), PSINet, AT&T, Verio and MindSpring (Netcom). These connections are not free public or private peering, instead InterNAP pays each of these backbones for full transit TCP/IP connectivity. This economic relationship between InterNAP and the major backbones provides our customers with something that private and public peering relationships cannot offer: a differentiated quality of service. This model is an industry first: InterNAP customers receive fast, reliable and centrally managed Internet connectivity services that maximize the performance of their mission-critical Internet-based applications. While this is an industry first and managing these multiple transit connections requires extremely advanced BGP4 routing expertise, these multiple connections alone offer very little improvement in Internet performance when using conventional routing technology. AN INTELLIGENT ROUTE This is why InterNAP developed an intelligent routing and route management technology specifically designed to directly deliver customer data to and from destinations across the public Internet in a faster more reliable manner. We call this technology ASsimilator. The ASsimilator technology is a combination of proprietary software modules and route management tools that extend and enhance the BGP4 routing protocol. This technology enables the P-NAP to make far more intelligent decisions than standard BGP4 routing is capable of making. ASsimilator allows the P-NAP to make intelligent routing decisions, such as choosing the faster of multiple backbones to route data if the destination is multi-homed. In addition, P-NAP customers are largely unaffected by global Internet backbone outages due to ASsimilator?s ability to re-route data via the next best path available, utilizing the P-NAPs extensive diversity to the global Internet backbones.
