Service Offering
As part of the "Cloud Network Services" portfolio, Swissom will offer a range of network services such as Managed Reverse Proxy, Forward Proxy, Global Load Balancer, DNS, DHCP, IPAM, etc.).
Managed Forward Proxy
The Managed Forward Proxy is a customer-specific instantiation, which is operated by Swisscom. The provision, modification and decommissioning is automated end-to-end. Each Managed Forward Proxy is set up on a Swisscom public IP address. This means that the automated provision of BGP routing is always possible.
Internet Access & DDoS Protection (option)
Swisscom's Internet access is used for this service without the need of a customer own Internet access. Both IPv4/IPV6 or dual stack are available. The bandwidth of the Internet access can be seen in the Performance Classes chapter below. Internet access is only overbooked 1:3.
Performance Classes
The Manage Reverse Proxy service is available in different performance classes:
| Performance class | Max. throughput | Max. connection-rate | Max. concurrent-connections |
|---|---|---|---|
| Small | 50Mbit/s | 100cps | 10'000ccc |
| Medium | 200Mbit/s | 200cps | 50'000ccc |
| Large | 1Gbit/s | 500cps | 100'000ccc |
| Extra Large | 2Gbit/s | 1000cps | 400'000ccc |
Throughput: The "Throughput" defines the throughput that is transported through the forward proxy. It consists of upload throughput plus download throughput.
Concurrent Connections: These are the connections on an instance that are active at the same time.
Connection-Rate: The connection rate (cps = connection per second) defines the maximum possible sessions that can be set up in one second. The duration of the sessions is irrelevant.
