2021: Ngenix Distributed Cloud Platform Selection

On October 20, 2021, NGENIX announced on October 20, 2021 that the ВсеИнструменты.ру online hypermarket had selected the NGENIX distributed cloud platform to provide high performance and cyber protection for its website.

The team was ВсеИнструменты.ру looking to replace existing solutions to deliver content and protect the web resource from cyber attacks. The goal of the customer was to protect the investment in SEO promotion, as well as ensure a high degree of availability of the web resource without loss of performance.

NGENIX offered a single solution based on a distributed cloud platform so that the team could ВсеИнструменты.ру maintain a high rate of web resource download, while protecting the web resource from DDoS attacks and hacks, reducing the risks of blocking legitimate traffic. In addition, operational support through convenient communication channels is important to the customer in order to keep the web resource stable in 24/7 mode.

To speed up the download of web pages, ВсеИнструменты.ру uses the capabilities of the NGENIX distributed cloud platform: the content of the web resource is cached on the NGENIX edge servers located in 24 regions of presence in strategic traffic exchange points. NGENIX has direct access to networks of more than 1000 Internet providers, and, according to the RIPE database, in one month users from 77% of Russian networks access data on the platform. The intelligent balancing algorithm selects the optimal route by directing a user request to the nearest platform node in terms of topology, which reduces the loading time of web pages.

NGENIX protects the web resource from all types of cyber attacks. Protection against brutal attacks and hacks is provided by the Web Application Firewall from Wallarm: copies of WAF are deployed in the cloud, which reduces the load on Wallarm servers and increases fault tolerance. The DDoS Protection service is used to protect a web resource from DDoS attacks, including those that are designed to increase the load on the WAF and slow its operation in order to carry out hacking.

The Edge Logic Rules service from NGENIX is used to solve the problem with false positives of bot-attack protection systems. Platform users can create their own rules for processing user requests to the platform based on a number of characteristics. In particular, requests from bots can be self-filtered by characteristics such as User-Agent and others, and determine what action the platform should take in relation to each request with this characteristic. Thus, you can quickly skip queries from search bots and block illegitimate queries that generate a parasitic load on a web resource. Rules are created from the personal account and do not require interference with the code. Applying created rules to all platform servers takes just over a minute. This is more convenient and easier than keeping the database of IP addresses of search bots up to date.

To quickly monitor traffic to the ВсеИнструменты.ру web resource, as well as the platform, the team uses NGENIX analytical services, which allow you to analyze the number of user requests processed by the platform, the number of blocked requests, a number of user behavior metrics and more than 30 more parameters. This, coupled with online technical support, helps you quickly respond to anomalies and monitor the status of a web resource in real time, providing a high degree of fault tolerance.

The maximum availability and stability of the website is ВсеИнструменты.ру important to the team. Using the NGENIX service, we got a multifunctional platform to solve our problems for delivering content to users, accelerating and cyber protection in single window mode, an operational support team ready to start solving problems within 5 minutes from the first contact, and a higher degree of manageability and transparency, "said Alexei Shkrimanovsky, technical director ВсеИнструменты.ру.
