Edge-to-Edge Networking

A network that begins at the edge and goes everywhere

The internet evolved from the core out, built to efficiently deliver services that originate in large, centralized, hyperscale data centers. Now we’re entering a world where new services will be designed from the edge in — and we built the Kinetic Grid platform to support these needs.

Edge-to-Edge Networking

An Edge-To-Edge Backbone

The Kinetic Edge platform is like having your own private backbone connecting all your servers in all your buildings in all your cities to each other. Local traffic would stay local, and long-haul traffic would traverse market boundaries with predictable performance. The Kinetic Grid platform makes it possible. Our solution can seamlessly extend to add network capacity and scale your digital needs.

Software-Defined Backbone

Programmatically configurable to meet your needs

Flat, Layer 2 Networks

Simple to use across dozens or even hundreds of locations via flat layer 2 network

Redundant, Multipath Routes

Multiple network routes provide critical resilience in high- performance environments

Predictable Performance

The Kinetic Grid network is never oversubscribed. You get exactly what you order, dedicated to your application.

The Kinetic Grid platform provides commercial-grade, multipath IP connectivity across markets and regions—as well as between markets. Software-defined configuration gives you flexibility and control, to expand when you need to. Virtualized interconnection makes it easy to remotely interconnecting with other networks and cloud onramps.

Built From the Optics, Up

Our software custom-defines flat L2 networks for our customers and provides predictable latencies from end-to-end. That’s because we do it ourselves, from the ground up, using dark fiber that we light with the latest PAM4 optics and control with our own SDN software.

Microsecond-Level Latencies

Every application requires different levels of latency and predictability to meet its performance goals. For time-sensitive applications, the Kinetic Grid can deliver latencies in the range of 30-100 microseconds—which is the performance required to implement O-RAN in a 5G network.

Intelligent Paths and Resilient Routes

The Kinetic Grid platform serves up an intelligent, multipath backbone that supports custom network configurations and redundant routes, offering predictable performance and high-levels of resilience. The Kinetic Grid provides resilience and route diversity within each market and from market to market.

An API for Real-Time Telemetry

Use our real-time telemetry feeds via Synse to instrument your applications or use off-the-shelf orchestration systems to make intelligent and autonomous decisions based on real world conditions. Programmatically discover when a network is becoming congested or a system is about to go offline and intelligently reconfigure your network and move workloads to optimize performance and resilience.

Intelligent Paths and Resilient Routes

Dynamically configure flat layer-2 networks that span a virtually unlimited number of locations, both within individual markets and from market-to-market. Custom vlans offer private, edge-to-edge, secure connectivity, including:

The Kinetic Grid offers long- and short-haul, physically redundant paths—all of which can occupy the same IP space for easy configuration across many locations. The Kinetic Grid platform also connects to other transit networks and cloud on-ramps to deliver data anywhere it needs to go.

Edge-to-Edge Networking

An Edge-To-Edge Backbone

The Kinetic Grid backbone is powered by Zayo dark fiber. Our collaboration with Zayo, a leading provider of global connectivity, allows us to seamlessly integrate market-to-market transit with edge-to-edge performance at low cost to our customers.
