For companies that serve large, digital content to many users, the cost of hosting and bandwidth can cut deeply into profits. With AceGain, many of these costs can be eliminated.

AceGain forms a decentralized, P2P (peer-to-peer) network that uses the local resources on other users' PCs to deliver large, digital content. AceGain benefits organizations like entertainment companies, content producers, game companies, application developers, media companies and even ISPs with delivering rich content such as video, music, photos, patch updates and even full applications. And depending on your needs, AceGain CDN can be as manageable, or as automated as you wish.

PEER-TO-PEER CONTENT DELIVERY NETWORK

AceGain Download Manager is a small software agent that resides on each user's PC. Companies can give their end users and subscribers the option of using the AceGain Download Manager to download content.

When a subscriber takes this option, AceGain Download Manager will find that piece of content on another user's (or group of users') PCs. Best of all, that file can be split into smaller sections. Each small section of the file can be downloaded in parallel from other users. The more people that share the file, the fewer resources will be used on each, individual PC.

PARALLEL MULTI-SOURCE DATA TRANSPORT

AceGain splits large files into multiple parts and enables parallel downloading. This significantly increases file download speed and scalability. Moreover, since each user will only be sharing a small portion of each file, the impact on each user will be minimal. And as more users join the network, the amount of resources on each PC is further reduced.

DATA TRANSFER MANAGEMENT


AceGain LiveUpdate provides robust network traffic and data/file transfer management capabilities. LiveUpdate manager allows administrators to configure a wide range of network parameters such as:

	Parallel download from different sources
	Total or individual maximum bandwidth usage for download/upload threads
	Maximum number of concurrent Download/Upload threads
	Download Source can be either the P2P network (each client) or a dedicated Update Server or cluster of Download Servers
	Identification/integrity control of the data/file delivered/exchanged, based on industry standard Digital Signature security

For each download/upload thread, user can also:

	Resume Downloads/Uploads
	Pause Downloads/Uploads
	Cancel Downloads/Uploads
	Restart Downloads/Uploads

CONTENT INTEGRITY VERIFICATION

AceGain Content Integrity mechanism ensures that only authorized users have access to the digital content. This helps protect intellectual property while further protecting abuse of the network and other users' machines. AceGain also provides industry standard encryption and digital signature technology to help protect the digital license of the content.

USE YOUR OWN BRANDING

The AceGain Download Manager can be fully branded with your company's logos and licensing information. AceGain can also host the solution for you—allowing you to focus on your core competencies.

PROPRIETARY NETWORKING PROTOCOLS AND PATENT-PENDING ROUTING

AceGain agents always use the highest QoS (Quality of Service) nodes when routing content to its destination. AceGain was built from the ground up and uses patent pending routing protocols to ensure that performance is always optimized. AceGain's Dynamic Routing layer automatically gauges the performance machine and always takes the most optimal route.
