The missions of charities are as wide ranging as the number of issues that different societies face across the world, however any cause can benefit from embracing the advances in technology that are taking place all around us.

Many technologies can be employed by the people, who the charities are supporting, themselves to solve some of the obstacles that they face in their everyday lives and charities are vital in increasing the awareness of these technologies and their benefits as well as rolling them out to those who will make use of them.

A blog from Matthew Finnie, CTO at Interoute Communications

Nearly every part of our lives these days will be affected, influenced and often facilitated by the use of computers and more to the point, networks of computers.

The following is an article that explores the potential (and frequently realised) uses of Fast Ethernet in both the personal sphere and that of business.

Interoute's Ethernet Virtual Private network - VPLS service - is a flexible, cost effective and reliable wide area network (WAN) solution for secure and private connectivity of multiple sites within an organisation.

Governments, businesses and consumers alike are increasingly aware of the importance of protecting the environment and companies across the world are taking on the challenge of reducing their environmental impact as Corporate Social Responsibility and government regulations move business towards being more environmentally conscious

VaaS - so much more than just video conferencing. Video as a Service is a fully managed visual communication solution complete with high capacity low latency connectivity from Interoute's pan-European next-generation network. It includes installation, set up and a range of support services

Strong business performance relies on excellent communication and complete understanding. Sharing ideas, products and solutions face-to-face is still the most effective route to success. But it's not always possible to be everywhere at once, especially for businesses today, where the pressure to improve performance and deliver more for less has never been greater.

The following article aims to provide a brief introduction to the concept of mobile VPN, how it works and its potential applications in business and the public sector.

The following article aims to provide an introduction to the concept of Fast Ethernet, what it is, a summary of how it works, and who can benefit from its implementation.

In the previous instalment of this article, the two fundamental models of cloud computing, private and public clouds, were described. The following installment introduces two further variations on these models which can be used to add flexibility to an organisation's IT infrastructure, the hybrid and the community cloud models.

Virtual Private Networks or VPNs have become commonplace for millions of users across the world in both their personal lives and their workplaces. In essence they allow computers on separate local networks (LANs) in different locations to connect to each other across the public connections of the internet without anyone else being able to see or intercept the information that is travelling between them.

Interoute's have two Fast Ethernet products, one based on Ethernet over SDH and Wavelengths and one based on Ethernet over MPLS.

Interoute offers customers the choice of two IP Transit services at a great price; Global Transit, which is an IP Transit services advertising routes to all Internet destinations, and Euro Transit, which advertises a partial routing table of Interoute's direct customers and peers. Interoute is a member of 20 of the worlds top Internet exchanges, routing customers traffic as directly as possible and delivering consistently high performance.

As more and more of us work on the move, from our homes or on personal devices that we bring into the office, it is becoming increasingly important to embrace the technologies behind the VPNs that allow us to 'remote on' to our office networks, giving us the freedom to take advantage of these flexible work practices. The following article provides a quick guide to how they actually work.
