Our highly redundant content management and delivery infrastructure is divided
into two basic configurations, Core Storage+Delivery and the Flixn Delivery
Network. Core Storage+Delivery, which is standard on all Flixn Media Platform
account levels, uses strategically-placed server clusters located within the
United States from which to store and serve content. Customer content is
mirrored across all three locations using our proprietary asynchronous large
object messaging bus.
Each of our three primary datacenters, located in Dallas,
Texas, Seattle, Washington, and Washington, D.C., feature private 10 gigabit
interconnects to the other two. This architecture ensures that every client
receives the utmost in reliability and excellent domestic performance for all of
their media assets.
Datacenter 1: INFOMART, Dallas, TX
Flixn's primary datacenter is inside the INFOMART telecom hotel near downtown Dallas. A private, Tier IV, N+1 facility, INFOMART is home to such companies as MCI, Verio, Verizon, Level 3, and Equinix. It sits atop three redundant TXU electrical grids with five on-site 100-ton water chillers meeting N+1 cooling standards.
Datacenter 2: Sabey, Seattle, WA
Our western datacenter is located at Sabey's Intergate.Seattle campus in Tukwila, Washington. Located outside the Seattle fault and liquefaction zones, the facility is designed and constructed to withstand a seismic event while ensuring business functions are uninterrupted. On-site are 45 generators with 500,000 gallons of fuel in storage, which back up the existing 55MW of existing electrical capacity in case of an emergency. The campus has connectivity through Seattle's robust fiber optic loops, and employs a carrier vault system supported by more than 50 miles of embedded, secure conduits.
Datacenter 3: 365 Main, Washington, D.C.
Located in Chantilly, Virginia, our East Coast facility is home to datacenters belonging to AT&T and Verizon Business, and has redundant power from two Dominion Virginia power grids. On-site are three 600-ton cooling towers which are fully N+1 compliant.
The Flixn Delivery Network is built upon the highly available Core Storage+Delivery services that function as the underpinnings of the Flixn Media Platform. Performance and reliability are significantly improved domestically, as well as abroad, through the use of an intelligent edge caching topology. This technology brings the media being viewed closer to the users who are viewing it, creating the most engaging experience possible. For clients catering to an international audience, our network of FDN clusters located around the globe ensures that their users enjoy a consistent level of service, regardless of where they may be.
Through the utilization of intelligent and predictive caching, as well as other proprietary advances in edge delivery technology, the Flixn Delivery Network is able to provide all of this at a cost substantially below other content delivery solutions on the market.
