Network Architecture
Spamdini's distributed network architecture uses multiple datacenters, located on both coasts of the United States as well as in other locations. Within each datacenter, Spamdini uses a Cisco-based, fault-tolerant network with redundant Gigabit Ethernet connectivity to multiple Tier I backbone providers.Hosting Environment
Spamdini grew out of an I-3, a development firm with ten years of hosting experience for enterprise customers. Each carrier-grade datacenter chosen by Spamdini provides power feeds from redundant power sources, continuously online UPS systems, redundant climate control, 24x7 manned guard stations, and institutional banking quality access procedures. All have emergency diesel generators with ample fuel on-site as well as negotiated arrangements for priority refueling in the event of an extended utility power outage.Redundant Parallel Systems
Spamdini's systems architecture is modular and comprised of load balancers, filters, supervisor modules, queues, and quarantine servers. All of these systems - from the front-end load balancers to the back-end quarantine servers are redundant and running in parallel.Proven Software
Engineered to scale with the rapid growth of junk mail, the Spamdini software is purpose-built and highly optimized. The software design avoids any disk access at all opportunities. The design provides for faster message processing and greater scalability than other approaches that are more disk-intensive.Message processing is fully atomic; confirmation of message receipt to a sending mail server is only sent after a verifiable delivery or disposition of that message, ensuring that no message can be lost. The software has been proven through the processing of billions of messages for Spamdini customers.
