Increase Connectivity Reliability with Blended IP Services from Evocative

How Evocative IP Meets the Evolving Demands of Today's Digital Workloads

March 19, 2024

Reliable internet connectivity is the lifeblood of today’s digital businesses and demands upon your networks will continue to increase. Research predicts that the average enterprise will have over 9,000 devices connected to its network by 2025.(1)

Unreliable connectivity can devastate an organization by zapping its productivity, jeopardizing its mission, and hurting its bottom line. Network outages can inflict substantial financial tolls on businesses, as customers can’t complete transactions and employee work may stall. Downtime costs range from $1.1 million per hour for retail to $6.48 million for brokerage service firms.(2) Outages can also cause havoc by preventing public sector organizations from providing essential services and delaying healthcare providers from delivering patient care.

In addition, many organizations today require higher bandwidth and lower latency than traditional ISPs can provide. Blended IP services deliver the resilience required to power high-bandwidth, low-latency connections between enterprise sites, data centers, edge locations, and users. By integrating multiple Tier-1 providers, a blended IP service creates a network with greater reliability and performance than a single carrier can provide.

Ways to Use a Blended IP Service

Bring the improved reliability of blended IP services to your business to improve connectivity in multiple areas:

Main internet access: Use a blended IP service for your primary IP transit needs to get scalable bandwidth and flexible routing options.
Backup internet access: Make a blended IP service your backup option for carrier-direct services. It can augment your primary service and provide flexibility.
Management access: Add a blended IP service to manage servers and networks on a separate channel from your primary internet or when your primary internet isn’t available.
