Oversi's P2P Caching System Helps Service Providers to Maintain Service Levels After Asian Earthquake

February 01, 2007

Continues to Relieve Pressure on International Lines One
Month After Undersea Cables Were Hit


    PETACH TIKVA, Israel, Feb. 1 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ --
Oversi, a pioneer in innovative Peer-to-Peer (P2P)
solutions for Internet Service Providers (ISPs), announced
today that its OverCache(TM) caching and delivery platform
has helped ISPs to maintain their level of service one
month after powerful earthquakes disrupted Internet access
across Asia. 

    Regional customer data shows that OverCache systems
supported an over 100 percent increase in local P2P traffic
from the moment the earthquake hit, relieving the burden on
damaged international connections and serving as crucial
back-up. With the system's high Byte-Hit-Ratio (BHR),
OverCache helped to ensure network performance and faster
user response when international lines were down. 

    Commenting on the system's performance, Joav Avtalion,
Chairman and CEO of Oversi, said, "A far greater
amount of bandwidth has been delivered through our systems
over the last month, meeting the ongoing demand from users
for Internet access. Even with no international bandwidth
available, ISPs could continue to give service to their
customers. We're pleased that our systems helped to
alleviate pressure from the network, and other critical
services, and support our customers in this real disaster
recovery situation."
