WorldDirector globally distributed cloud

WorldDirector CDN and global cloud

WorldDirector is NEXUS-IBA’s high tech solution initially designed and developed at NEXUS-IBA Research, Developemnt and Innovaton lab during 1994-1995 that provides globally distributed Internet streaming and content distribution solutions.

WorldDirector technology and its global network have been further and continuously enhanced, developed and maintained by NEXUS-IBA and its technology partners.

WorldDirector: globally distributed, hybrid clouds with self-resilient disaster recovery

WorldDirector technology provides a content delivery network (CDN) and a globally distributed hybrid cloud solution for corporate, government, or NGO users. It may be licenced to cloud providers for resale to their clients. It may be used in public or private clouds or a mix. It can be used in private data centres and at a mix of major cloud providers (AWS, Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure, etc.) to enhance speed and reliability.

WordDirector also provides automatic Load Balancing across the same and globally distributed data centres and Disaster Recovery, by active duplication of content on multiple AS (Autonomous Systems), making active nodes in the network always available 100% of the time.

WorldDirector’s intrinsic configuration can also resist multiple attacks and failures that may affect hardware and software components on the network until at least one of the WorldDirector nodes remains available online. With WorldDirector, NEXUS-IBA has been able to keep some services activated since 1995 with 100% uptime, even during attacks, maintenance, or catastrophic events that have affected the Internet in the last 25+ years.

Who uses WorldDirector?

WorldDirector is used by NEXUS-IBA and partners to enhance the reliability of any online service (email, apps, hosting, archive, video, audio, etc.) and to speed content from enterprise and nonprofit organisations or ISP data centres to remote clients at the edge of the Internet.

Both commercial and non-commercial organisations enjoy our competitive rates and the exceptional quality of our Internet and media services worldwide.

How does WorldDirector compare with other solutions?

Other cloud or CDN solutions strongly depend on a single origin node or router at a single network location or are based on a single Autonomous System, each acting as a Single Point of Failure (SPOF). A SPOF is a system that, if it fails, will stop the entire web, application, and all online services from working.

WorldDirector also offers a cheaper and less reliable option (passive mode) similar to existing solutions based on a single origin or single upstream server, which do not have all the characteristics of the WorldDirector active-mode solution.

WorldDirector provides the best quality and highest speed in delivering real-time audio, video, text, graphics and any other content over the Internet, including any application or website (e-commerce, portal, streaming site, etc.).

Since 1994, NEXUS-IBA has operated as a multi-media international service provider for commercial and nonprofit organisations. Today, our WorldDirector technology is used by several partners and clients worldwide.
