Qwest Supports Information Sharing with Secure Solutions
Using a fully integrated methodology that moves and shares information content in all volumes while reducing the need for a separate distribution infrastructure, Qwest can help an agency lower its costs. Read more at www.gsanetworx.com

Qwest provides federal agencies with an array of information sharing and distribution offerings that are proven and scalable. 

Our Content Delivery Network Service (CDNS), which is available through the GSA Networx contract, moves and shares information content in all volumes from the originating site to our network.

This fully integrated methodology significantly reduces the need for a separate distribution infrastructure and typically lowers costs for Web and application servers, bandwidth, and software and hardware maintenance.
CDNS supports features such as static content download, and real-time and on-demand streaming. 

Qwest also offers multimedia conferencing for information sharing ranging from audio voice to video. These services provide efficient ways for agencies to collaborate with employees and vendors and increase customer service
options for interacting with the taxpayers they serve. 

Our secure converged multi-protocol layered service platform (MPLS) is the engine that drives the integrated application suites. With the power of our network, Qwest delivers converged services through its state-of-the-art
CyberCenters. These 50,000+ square foot facilities are cost-effective alternatives to developing, deploying and staffing an agency’s own hosting center. They also provide a full range of solutions that can store and manage agency configurations, which assures that information is securely distributed and shared.
