How Soarsilk Works
By combining its proprietary intelligent resource optimisation technology with best-in-class
near-China CDNs, Soarsilk is the only platform able to both accelerate and resolve the
functionality issues websites face in China. Works with any CMS build to achieve native
performance for websites hosted in and outside of China.
Best-in-class code + infrastructure
Unlike the rest of the world, website performance issues cannot
simply be resolved with hosting or content delivery networks
. Faster networks
also do not equal 'speed' in China.
Soarsilk is a highly
tuned complex integration of both Software (i.e. Code) and infrastructure (i.e. Hardware)
that can be bolted onto almost any site.

What's involved for you?
With
Soarsilk, your site can be optimised for China in just 2 weeks, instead of months or years. We help
with all the technical heavy-lifting. All we need from you is to confirm what website you'd like
optimised, go through a quick evaluation, and taking the final step of switching Soarsilk on at the
very end.

SITE GENERATION
Two versions of one website
Soarsilk first creates a 'China-specific' version of your site based on the publically
available html/css/js of your site.
The 'mirrored' version of your site is the one that is then managed & modified by
Soarsilk - ensuring that your original site and SEO remains unaffected.
INTELLIGENT RESOURCE SUITE
Identify, extract & replace blocked or slow resources
Soarsilk's Smart Action function uses
rule-based recommendations to handle ~75% of the
most blocked or slow resources
, replacing them with China equivalents or removing
those that are blocked and have no replacement so it doesn't negatively affect the function
on the rest of the website.
Soarsilk has rules for over 1200+ resources to date.
BEST-IN-CLASS INFRASTRUCTURE
Load Balancers & CDNs
Soarsilk then automatically bolts on a best-in-class
infrastructure including hosting for your Soarsilk site, load balancers to handle for
traffic fluctuations, domain compression,
near-China content delivery networks
(CDNs), selected for their competitiveness based on
thousands of performance tests.
RULE-BASED AUTOMATION
Automation & Efficiency
The Soarsilk version is then synchronized with your original site so that changes are
processed and reflected accordingly.
DNS & CDNS
Geo IP-based Routing
The Soarsilk version is hosted with Soarsilk. Geo-IP based routing is then implemented on the
DNS or CDN level of your
site
to ensure that only China visitors will be sent to the Soarsilk version of
your site, and all others back to your original site.
Dynamic requests (e.g. transactions) also return to your original site's origin to ensure that
real-time information is provided to visitors in China.
