挑战
Creare Group, a leading digital marketing agency for small to medium businesses in the UK, was in the process of revamping its server security. They were looking for a solution that could not only improve their security but also boost the SEO rankings of their clients' websites. The company was hit by a DDOS attack during the relaunch of its brand and site at a high-profile event. The attack was so strong that it was able to take down the dedicated server that solely hosted the site. Additionally, Creare wanted to deliver rapid load speeds to its clients in the UK and around the world, and improve the load speed of highly dynamic Magento e-commerce sites.
关于客户
The Creare Group is one of the UK’s leading digital marketing agencies for small to medium businesses (SMEs).

解决方案
Creare approached Cloudflare about their Optimized Partner program and decided to implement it. Cloudflare first demonstrated its value when Creare was hit by a DDOS attack during the relaunch of its brand and site. By enabling a Cloudflare Business account, Creare was able to prevent the attack. Cloudflare also provided strong Web Application Firewall to prevent Layer 7 attacks against Creare’s servers and prevent spam bots from reaching Creare’s servers. Moreover, Creare utilized Cloudflare’s two UK data centers in London and Manchester to deliver rapid load speeds to its clients in the UK. Cloudflare’s global Anycast network enabled Creare to deliver clients’ e-commerce solutions more quickly to their customers around the world. As an Optimized Partner, Creare was also able to benefit from Railgun, Cloudflare’s dynamic content optimizer.

Darwin Ecosystem: Accelerating discovery and insight through cutting-edge big data and cognitive technologies
Darwin Ecosystem was founded with a unique vision of harnessing chaos theory mathematics to uncover previously hidden connections in unstructured data. The company’s algorithms can look at all the data generated by any source (such as news, RSS feeds and Twitter), and analyze how a specific set of concepts within that data are evolving over time. This is particularly valuable in situations such as business and competitive intelligence, social research, brand monitoring, legal discovery, risk mitigation and even law enforcement. A common problem in these areas is that a regular web search will only turn up the all-time most popular answers to a given question – but what the expert researcher is actually interested in is the moment-tomoment evolution of the data available on that topic. Darwin’s algorithm is computationally intensive, and the sources of data it correlates can be vast. To bring its benefits to a larger commercial audience, Darwin needed to find a way to make it scale.

Delivering modern data protection with cloud scale backup from Cobalt Iron and IBM
Organizations are struggling to modernize their legacy data protection environments in the face of growing demands around new infrastructure, new applications, and budget consolidation. Virtualization and modern application development processes have significantly outgrown legacy backup architectures. In response, infrastructure teams have created multiple backup solution types to handle the varying SLAs (performance, scale, cost) required by their business sponsors. However, the sheer number and variety of solutions in this uncontrolled expansion creates huge amounts of work, threatening to overwhelm the IT team in many organizations. Today, developers may add new applications and virtual server instances by the hundreds per day without accounting for the restrictions of the existing backup infrastructure. They leverage the cloud for immediate compute and storage resources, yet rarely communicate succinctly with corporate IT to ensure that the appropriate data protection services are in place.
