Exponential e
Founded in 2002, Exponential-e was the first UK company to roll out a Layer 2 VPLS-enabled Next Generation Network. In addition to fast, high capacity, flexible connectivity solutions, companies can also access a range of enterprise services and applications which are hosted on the network, such as: managed security services, Internet, voice services, video services, co-location and storage which are all available through a single converged access circuit.
As well as its national UK network, Exponential-e has direct connections into primary international trading centres such as New York, Chicago London and Frankfurt.
Exponential-e's network solutions are fast, flexible and secure – giving customers responsive, scalable networks which reduce risks and costs while enhancing their business performance.
Exponential-e Services:
Private WAN connectivity
Exponential-e's pioneering VPLS technology enables the creation of fast, secure, flexible WANs that reduce costs and improve efficiency.
Internet Services
Exponential-e offers a Business-grade Internet service, PowerNGN, at extremely competitive prices. It is designed to dynamically optimise your Internet service every time you connect. It delivers the high performance needed to support mission-critical business processes and applications and it will outperform a direct connection to a Tier 1 provider, typically reducing the latency by 20% to 50% and reducing packet loss to zero.
Convergence
Exponential-e's network is built to accommodate the secure convergence of multiple services using individual VLANs across a single Ethernet connection, saving infrastructure costs.
Data Centre Services
Exponential-e can offer:
- Co-location
- Disaster Recovery Infrastructure
- Data Backup
Security Services
As part of their managed security offering, PowerNGN Secure, Exponential-e offers:
- Managed firewalls
- Secure VPN access
- Security consultancy
- Threat management- email and web virus protection and spam capture
- Web filtering
Voice Services
Exponential-e's SIP Trunking solution is a premium, toll-quality voice solution which provides access to the PSTN over Exponential-e's next-generation, multi-service network.
Financial market services
For the financial markets, Exponential-e provides low-latency connectivity, financial data feeds and associated applications and services. Our Financial Exchange Community is a networked community of buy-side and sell-side financial organisations hosted on a high-speed resilient Ethernet network, offering ultra-low latencies for FX, options, derivatives and equity trading.
Virtualisation
When virtualisation is underpinned by the unique features of Exponential-e's NGN, great value can be derived. The most important feature of Exponential-e's NGN in the virtualisation context is its layer 2 VPLS service layer delivered over MPLS. If virtualisation is the technique for managing systems and resource functionality regardless of their physical location; then VPLS next generation networking is the service-oriented architecture which allows it to happen across the WAN.
