We are very proud of our network and how efficient it is in delivering your media all around the world (we're ecstatic to know we can help you reach out to so many people in so many places). We operate primarily from three datacenters in the USA, each near major population centers to make sure latency is as low as possible, which are described below. We also offer localized streaming servers for Europe and Asia. Please get in touch with us for more details.

- Multi-Homed Network:
Providers included are Time Warner Telecom, XO Communications, and ELI. We also have fiber to the main POP building in Spokane, so we have access to all providers with a presence in the Inland Northwest. - Redundant Routers:
We are running dual Cisco routers for redundancy. The routers are Cisco 12000 Series routers which can handle an OC48 and scale from 2.5 Gbps/slot to 40 Gbps/slot capacity, enabling carrier-class IP/MPLS core and edge networks. - Redundant Power:
All servers are placed on circuits that have UPS backup power. We also have a Cummins diesel generator with 350,000 Watt Capacity that can power the entire facility.

- SpryCast TX is connected to the Internet through 14 Gigabit Ethernet links from six separate backbone providers. Our current providers are Verio, Williams Communications, Savvis, ELI, and Time Warner. The datacenter is manned 24/7 by trained professionals that monitor all events happening within the facility. The NOC also includes redundant UPS systems, generator backup, and VESPA detection systems to ensure all servers are up and running 24 hours a day.

- The core NY infrastructure is 100% N+1 redundant Juniper M-class backbone routers, currently with over 32Gbps of capacity. These routers offer incredible performance and resilience to DoS (denial of service) attacks. The SpryCast NY network offers advanced BGP4+ routing and the highest network engineering standards to create a data network that is ideally suited for mission critical complex application hosting, VOIP termination/origination and a plethora of transit and transport options.
