DNS: SuperLumin Networks Implements Nemesis Software at Autism Center



SuperLumin Networks, a provider of caching, content acceleration, and application acceleration solutions, has installed its Nemesis software at the Anderson Center for Autism.

SuperLumin claimed that its 64-bit caching and application acceleration technology Nemesis can meet the ever-growing requirements of today's bandwidth-deficient corporations and enterprises. The software includes an enhanced 64-bit architecture and high-performance Social Media Cache and offers content acceleration capabilities for HTTP/HTTPS and DNS while also offering full eCDN distribution and management capabilities.

TMCnet reported that SuperLumin Social Media Cache will be able to alleviate the huge impact that social media websites have on institutional and corporate bandwidth, company officials.

Anderson Center for Autism has been using the streaming capability of YouTube (News - Alert) to provide its educational resources to students and wanted a solution that countered the increasing demand for Internet videos and to protect against malicious content for its 850 students, faculty and staff. The SuperLumin Nemesis’ Social Media Cache (SMC) will help the school in redefining Web access policies and decrease the impact of rich-media sites such as YouTube, resulting in improved application performance and heightened Web security.

The school noted that by operating as a non-profit organization, it needed a budget-friendly solution to protect students from malicious content, while optimizing the current curriculum. Its existing Web caching solution just wasn’t getting the job done. It was maxing out its 10MB pipes, with YouTube being the number one bandwidth consumption suspect. The newly deployed SuperLumin SMC blended with its existing infrastructure, and didn’t demand any newer and additional bandwidth. The SMC met the high expectations of students and faculty, while the management features make it easy to monitor and maintain, allowing utilization of IT resources more efficiently.

The new software integrates with existing proxies; only caches social media requests; performs as a reverse proxy; identifies social media objects that have already been retrieved; brings down bandwidth consumption; relieves network congestion Increases end-user satisfaction; delivers a quick ROI; and more.
