The Advantages of Privately Peered Connections for Critical Internet-connected Security, Alarm, Fire, Elevator and Communications Systems
In today’s digital age, the backbone of our connected world lies in the seamless communication between various internet-connected hardware components and critical systems.
As organizations increasingly rely on these connections, the importance of their speed, security, control, and reliability cannot be overstated.
Although somewhat rare, special Privately Peered Connections, which involve direct interconnections between networks, offer significant advantages in these areas.
What are some of the benefits to leveraging private peering when possible?
Speed – Reducing Latency and Enhancing Performance
One of the most immediate benefits of privately peered connections is the significant reduction in latency. When data travels over the public internet, it often takes a convoluted path, hopping through multiple routers and networks before reaching its destination.
This journey can introduce considerable delays, especially during peak traffic times. In contrast, privately peered connections enable direct data exchange between networks, bypassing the congested public internet.
A direct path minimizes the number of hops and reduces the overall distance data must travel, resulting in lower latency and faster data transfer speeds.
Faster connections translate to more responsive systems, improved user experiences, and a competitive edge in the market.
Security – Safeguarding Sensitive Data
Security is a top concern for any organization handling sensitive data. When data traverses the public internet, it is exposed to a myriad of potential threats, including interception, hacking, and other forms of cyberattacks.
Privately peered connections provide a robust security advantage by creating a dedicated, isolated link between networks.
With a privately peered connection, data bypasses the public internet entirely, significantly reducing the risk of interception. This isolation ensures that sensitive information remains within a controlled environment, enhancing overall data security.
For industries such as healthcare, finance, and government, where data breaches can have severe consequences, privately peered connections offer peace of mind and regulatory compliance.
Control – Customizing Network Management
Control over network management is another compelling reason for privately peered connections. Public internet traffic is subject to the policies and priorities of multiple Internet Service Providers (ISPs), which can lead to unpredictable performance and limited control over routing decisions.
Privately peered connections, on the other hand, grant organizations greater control over their network infrastructure. You can often tailor their network configurations to suit specific needs, ensuring optimal performance and reliability.
This control extends to bandwidth allocation, Quality of Service (QoS) policies, and traffic prioritization, allowing organizations to fine-tune their networks to meet the demands of their critical applications.
Reliability – Ensuring Consistent Connectivity
Reliability is a cornerstone of any robust network infrastructure. The public internet, with its susceptibility to congestion, outages, and route changes, can be unreliable for mission-critical use cases.
Privately peered connections offer a more dependable alternative by providing a stable, dedicated link between networks.
This dedicated connection is less prone to the fluctuations and failures that can plague public internet routes. By reducing the dependency on third-party ISPs, organizations can ensure more consistent and predictable network performance.
This reliability is particularly crucial for services that require uninterrupted connectivity, such as POTS line replacement solutions, VoIP services, security/fire alarm sensor panels, or online transaction processing systems.
