Ancillary Services
SatMENA offers differentiated services that meet the demands of enterprises across the MENA region through offering high quality internet over satellite in addition to ancillary services (e.g. VPN solutions, closed-network connectivity, VPN solutions, shared hosting and file sharing). Our solutions are ideal for all types of businesses, including multi-branch enterprises. If facilities and/or terrestrial lines stop functioning, our VSAT enables displaced workers to serve customers and to continue conducting business as usual – securely from anywhere. This is a vital component of a complete disaster recovery solution and reduces the impact of natural, accidental, or man-made terrestrial interruptions. It enables IT personnel to recover a company’s comprehensive information infrastructure from the data center to the end user environment via satellite – quickly, securely, and with minimal business impact. This technology provides close to 100% service availability in the event of any disruptions.
At SatMENA we understand that technology is rapidly changing, and so is our product offering. These services are based on client needs and requirements, hence will be customized and assessed on a case-by-case basis. Below is an overview of the services offered. All our services and customized solutions are tailored to meet the client’s every need, supplemented by 24/7 support to ensure the highest Quality of Service (QoS). In terms of applications of particular interest to our target market, our service offering can be divided into three main divisions that aim to improve the quality of services provided, enhance server uptime, implement disaster recovery, and gear all sectors targeted towards a more connected environment.
Path Diversity via Secure Satellite Links
Path diversity ensures that an organization can retain backup critical connectivity when a primary terrestrial network fails for any reason—not necessarily a disaster. In a properly designed, fail-safe network design, the switchover would be seamless to users.
Path diversity is of utmost vitality to the banking sector, multi-branch enterprises, ICT firms and e-commerce platforms, customer oriented B2C enterprises, hospitals, and universities.
As noted, any terrestrial technology network backing up a primary network creates a vulnerability even if they are each different—for example, fiber and the backup copper links from another service provider—because many carriers use common rights of way into premises, so true path diversity is lost since the right of way is a single point of failure.
Link Load Balancing
Offload of nonessential background traffic from the primary network connection. For example, data backups can be routed over the satellite link to reduce load on the terrestrial link.
Multi-Branch Networks
Multicast and broadcast capability for branch locations. Satellite provides the most economical and efficient means to deliver content anywhere, whether state-wide or nationwide, and is ideal for branch locations where digital signage, large data downloads, and other applications are needed.
Fast and Easy Deployments
For new branch offices, the satellite link can very often be operational and online far faster than the primary terrestrial connection. This means that a business can be online more quickly too.
Reliable Managed Data Centers
Managed data centers and cloud data storage aim to provide cloud based applications accessible through the satellite endpoints to decrease the geographical vulnerability and risk to offload all or part of the critical data to ensure disaster recovery and data backup. In many cases, branch offices or remote affiliates are connected via terrestrial networks. Relying on our advanced Dialog hub by Newtec, we offer business continuity solutions with the highest reliability profile on the market in order to ensure continuous productivity.
Our satellite links can operate in active or redundant mode to ensure that displaced workers can continue to serve customers even in remote areas or whenever terrestrial links are damaged or overflowed with data packets. Add to that, our satellite links and communication modules feature the most advanced and latest security profiles to ensure that no critical data is put at risk, allowing smooth and seamless integrations of company environment with the managed data centers via satellite links – swiftly, securely, and smoothly with minimal business impact.
