Transforming networking for a
digital world
Why are we different
We took everything about networking infrastructure from fiber, network & architecture and completely re-engineered it to serve a world powered by Cloud and digital experience- one that requires 100% uptime, shortest latency and control in the hands of customer
Lightstorm Next Gen Network Design
- ~ 90% of long-haul fiber routes on OPGW/Utility infrastructure
- Zero flaps because of OPGW/Utility infrastructure
- Spine-leaf architecture in metro targeting Multi-tenant DC
- Point-to-point linear long-haul/metro express network architecture
- Better latency as no add-drop sites in between source/destination
- All long-haul/metro PoP are located within Tier-3/4 DC with high availability design
- Single hardware across metro/long-haul network providing ease of operation
- Network is Software-defined by foundation
Traditional Network Design
- ~ 90% of long-haul fiber routes are underground fiber
- Prone to frequent flaps & fiber cuts
- Non-linear ring-based architecture with multiple add-drop locations
- Multiple add-drop locations lead to high latency between source/destination
- Designed for wireless/B2C market segment using traditional ring-based architecture
- PoPs in telco's site leading to reliability/availability issues
- Multiple vendors and legacy hardware leading to operational complexity
- Legacy network with no programmability
