Internap claims that its bundled data center colocation and Performance IP networking services offer a 100% performance service level agreement. Performance IP is based on patented software technology called Managed Internet Route Optimizer (MIRO) and 55 network access points worldwide. The Performance IP platform monitors internet performance across multiple backbones to select the best path for content to travel. It also integrates with Internap's enterprise data center locations at 44 sites throughout the world, giving businesses a vehicle to manage websites and network intensive applications. James DeBlasio, CEO of Internap, said: "Sharedband's solution provides its customers a high-speed, resilient link into Internap's route-optimized global IP network. The result is broadband internet service can now be delivered to millions of new residential and business consumers using off-the-shelf technology and currently available network capacity." http://www.datamonitor.com Republication or redistribution, including by framing or similar means, is expressly prohibited without prior written consent.
