Graphiant is a flexible and cost-effective networking solution that is consumption-based, allowing organizations to focus on their core business activities while leaving network operations and management to the experts.

About Graphiant & WWT

Graphiant believes networking needs to be simple to acquire and consume. MPLS, SDWAN, and other VPN technologies must be improved to meet enterprises' business needs. Enterprises require simple, secure, and reliable networks architected as a service, providing any-to-any secure connectivity with complete visibility.

Graphiant's mission is to create new models of private networking to enable a marketplace for business communication and enhance edge networking capabilities by building a network service platform.

Specifically, you need a wide area network service that you, the customer, do not have to design, implement, operate, or maintain. A service offering that is high speed, secure, and has optimal connectivity backed with SLAs.

Think of Graphiant as your secure private Internet that allows you to define your traffic and security policies.

Graphiant's solution focuses on three use cases.

  1. Network Edge Connecting your company's locations.
  2. Business to Business Simplifying connectivity to your partners.
  3. Cloud-integrated access connectivity to Cloud services

Network Edge connects your company's locations, providing any-to-any connectivity. 

Graphiant simplifies the entire process. You connect each enterprise location to the Stateless core via Graphiant Edge software.  Then you set up your security and traffic policies using the cloud-based Graphiant Portal.

In minutes, you've provisioned enterprise-grade connectivity with rock-solid privacy via end-to-end encryption and security policies. Costs are lowered compared to MPLS and SD-WAN, provider agnostic first-mile connectivity for Graphiant Core reachability, and tunnel sprawl is eliminated while maintaining any-to-any connectivity.

Graphiant can deliver a solution with minimal customization and reliable service levels (SLAs) and quickly scale up or down without adding complexity while providing high visibility via the Graphiant cloud portal.

Note: You can run the Edge node Software on a Virtual Machine or third-party hardware


Business to Business: Connect with your customers and partners with extreme agility.

Connecting business networks is expensive and time-consuming for you and your partners. Companies must commission, design, and build a secure DMZ for traffic to move between. DMZs have extended lead times, require upfront capital expenditure, require IPsec tunnels limiting throughput, and are static; changes are complex and slow to deploy.

Graphiant allows you to provide secure B2B connectivity with high throughput via a single connection with rock-solid privacy and security.

Both you and the partner business connect via a Graphiant Edge to the Graphiant stateless core. Then, set business-to-business policies using a cloud-based portal. And just like that, you have robust, secure B2B connectivity without complex DMZs. Provisioning takes minutes, not weeks.

If your business partner does not have or want a Graphiant Edge, they can connect to a Graphiant gateway using stand IPsec, and they will still have the burden of a DMZ and require the use of IPsec. However, they could turn up a single instance of a Graphiant edge node.


Cloud integrated access

Graphiant simplifies multi-cloud and hybrid-cloud connectivity. The benefits are lower cost, low latency, secure connection, and faster time to productivity.

Graphiant can accomplish this in several ways. 

Graphiant is deploying private high-speed connectivity from the Graphiant stateless core into the significant Cloud service providers via a Graphiant gateway located in Graphiant Points of Presence.

The connectivity is as simple as entering the Graphiant Portal, defining the region, the cloud service providers, and the required speed. Graphiant will take it from there; within 24 hours, you will have private line connectivity into your Cloud Service Provider. 

The benefits are private high-speed, low latency connections, with a cost saving per gig of data egressing the cloud compared to a standard internet connection.

This solution also allows you to provide cloud-to-cloud connectivity leveraging your Graphiant core.

Another alternative for cloud connectivity, but a more complex solution, is leveraging a Graphiant Gateway. These Gateways sit on the edge of the Graphiant core at a Point of presence and are typically in the same rack as the core nodes. The Gateway encrypts & decrypts packets operating like a Graphiant Edge Node. Since Graphiant points of presence are in carrier-neutral facilities, i.e., Equinix locations, you can leverage private direct connections using Azure Express Route, AWS Direct Connect, and Google Cloud Interconnect. You could even leverage Equinix fabric by using a single circuit with multiple VLANs, one for each cloud provider.
