A platform can provide anycast networking capabilities (IP, routing, failover) as a service to other providers who need a robust anycast infrastructure.
Anycast-as-a-service provides ready-made, instantly-deployable anycast hosting in predefined locations for low-demand customers who still need the performance and reliability offered by anycast networking. Anycast-as-a-service can be used to quickly expand an existing anycast infrastructure or distribution network with additional locations.
In order to offer anycast-as-a-service, companies must either build and maintain their own high-capacity anycast infrastructure, or work with an infrastructure partner to build a custom platform for their anycast service offerings.
In the example below, we show a sample anycast-as-a-service model where a customer’s resources connect with NetActuate’s anycast platform via agent-based or agentless tunnels to form a larger anycast mesh network, delivering anycast-as-a-service to their own customers’ end points.
An anycast platform can meet the needs of anycast-as-a-service providers who require a purpose-built, highly available network.
Common use cases include accelerating DNS, CDN, VPN, WAF, API gateways, and SIEM ingestion, as well as improving uptime for SaaS applications and multi-cloud services.
It eliminates the need to manage BGP sessions, peerings, and route announcements. Enterprises gain global reach, simplified endpoint management, and built-in DDoS resilience through the provider’s network.
Assess the provider’s global footprint, network capacity, latency metrics, SLA guarantees, health-check automation, DDoS protection, IPv6 support, and integration options (e.g., APIs or hybrid-cloud connectivity).
Deploy across 45+ global locations on one of the world’s largest networks, engineered for performance, resiliency, and efficient scaling without the risk of downtime or runaway costs.
