End-Point network control; protecting SLAs

The value of providing optimized and accelerated connection from the cloud or content network edge to the end-user device is clear and well known. What about dealing with interruptions, congestion, and other effects that occur within the end-users local environment? Circadence has developed unique technology within our MVO optimization with the ability to maintain Session Persistence at the end-user. This patented technology is called Link Resilience™and it maintains application sessions and mitigates momentary outages and network disruptions, whether the issue is with the CDN’s network, the local network provider utilized by the end-user (e.g. their ISP), or a problem the end-user may be having within their LAN environment. When an interruption does occur, the local application session is maintained by MVO until the connection is restored. When the problem has been resolved, the application automatically reconnects and picks up where it left off; preventing further delays, ensuring content is delivered, and minimizing the interruption to the end user.  MVO with Link Resilience provides CDN’s with the technology they need to ensure that content is delivered reliably, consistently, and completely to their end-users as efficiently as possible.

Most applications are designed to assume that the network link connecting the application client to the application server will be persistent and reliable. That assumption works fairly well when the network link is perfectly behaved and performing consistently.



Applications connected over WAN links are affected significantly by the reliability and resiliency of the network link. Without MVO the application will fail, sometimes with unpredictable results, when the WAN link is disrupted. In many cases file transfers will need to start over from the beginning, databases lock up, and transactions break. 



Circadence MVO provides a highly efficient, consistent, and high performance connection over the WAN. This enables application to achieve peak performance and reliability.



MVO includes unique and patented Link Resilience, which enables applications to remain active and alive during WAN outages. MVO can be configured to terminate the local connection immediately, or keep the application connection alive for an administratively configured period of time.
