Parinita Corridor

The Sovereign Highway

SD-WAN data plane with sub-50ms failover across every carrier.

Corridor is the SD-WAN data plane that owns WAN path selection. Where Crucible decides what is allowed and encodes identity into the packet, Corridor decides how the packet moves — scoring every available WAN path in real time on latency, health, cost, and sovereignty.

01 / The Problem

BGP Convergence Is Too Slow for Regulated AI Workloads

BGP failover takes 30 seconds to 15 minutes. For AI inference workloads carrying ITAR or HIPAA data, that window is unacceptable. Manual path policy in routing tables cannot enforce data-sovereignty constraints in real time.

Enterprises with multi-jurisdiction workloads write compliance logic into application code because the network layer cannot enforce residency. Carrier failures cascade because path selection has no real-time health awareness.

  • BGP Convergence Latency

    BGP failover takes 30 seconds to 15 minutes. Regulated AI inference workloads cannot tolerate that window.

  • No Sovereignty Enforcement at the Network Layer

    Application code must enforce data residency because network policy cannot. One misconfiguration sends regulated data across a non-compliant path.

  • Carrier Dependency Risk

    Single-carrier WAN creates hard dependencies. No path-scoring engine means carrier degradation becomes an outage, not a reroute.

02 / Core Capabilities

Four-dimensional path scoring. Sub-50ms failover.

Corridor does not replace your WAN providers. It arbitrates intelligently across all of them — scoring every path in real time on latency, health, cost, and sovereignty constraints, and failing closed when no compliant path exists.

BFD probes (10ms x 5 multiplier) and active probes (100ms cadence) feed a real-time scorer on every path. NATS JetStream events propagate health changes to the scorer in under 10ms. Failover is sub-50ms.

  • Four-Dimensional Path Scoring

    BFD probes (10ms x 5) plus active probes (100ms cadence) feed a real-time scorer on latency, health, cost, and sovereignty. Decisions in under 10ms.

  • Sub-50ms Failover

    NATS JetStream events deliver health changes to the scorer in under 10ms. New path selected and enforced in under 50ms — vs. BGP's 30 seconds to 15 minutes.

  • Every Major WAN Provider

    Lumen (primary), Megaport (dynamic cross-connect), AWS Direct Connect, GCP Cloud Interconnect, Azure ExpressRoute, plus mobile/broadband carrier peering — all through one control plane.

  • Sovereignty-Hard, Fail-Closed

    HIPAA, ITAR, and Financial workloads disqualify public Lumen paths automatically. If no compliant path exists, the request is rejected. Corridor fails closed rather than open.

  • Anycast Bootstrap

    Corridor selects the nearest POP via anycast. After POP selection, hands off to Crucible for tunnel establishment and identity assignment.

  • Megaport Dynamic Cross-Connect

    Corridor manages the Megaport API for programmatic cross-connect provisioning — dynamic SD-WAN paths across Megaport's fabric without manual provisioning.

  • Hyperscaler Interconnects

    AWS Direct Connect, GCP Cloud Interconnect, and Azure ExpressRoute treated as dynamic SD-WAN paths — health-scored like any other WAN option.

  • SLA Breach Escalation

    SLA breaches for regulated workloads with no compliant path go to parinita.corridor.breach for Chrysalis logging and NOC escalation.

  • Chrysalis Audit

    Every path selection decision, health event, and SLA breach anchored on Chrysalis for compliance reporting.

03 / Architecture

The Path-Scoring Engine

Corridor runs a per-site path-scoring engine fed by BFD probes (10ms x 5 multiplier) and active probes (100ms update interval) across every available path type at every POP. NATS JetStream events propagate health changes to the scorer in under 10ms.

The interface to Crucible is bidirectional. Corridor reads Crucible's identity-to-path mappings to know which paths each workload class may use. It publishes path-health events back to Crucible on parinita.corridor.health, which Crucible uses to update CRDT routing decisions.

04 / Path Selection

Four scoring dimensions. Sub-50ms failover.

Corridor scores every path on four dimensions before selecting. HIPAA, ITAR, and Financial workloads disqualify public paths automatically. If no compliant path exists, the request is rejected — Corridor fails closed, not open.

  1. 01
    Latency Score
    What is the current measured latency on this path?
  2. 02
    Health Score
    What is the BFD probe health and active probe result for this path?
  3. 03
    Cost Score
    What is the relative cost of this path vs. alternatives?
  4. 04
    Sovereignty Constraint
    Does this path comply with the workload data-residency and circuit-type requirements?
  5. 05
    Carrier Type
    Is this path private (Lumen/Megaport) or public? Does the workload class allow public paths?
  6. 06
    SLA Threshold
    Does this path meet the latency SLA for this workload class?
  7. 07
    Geographic Affinity
    Which path routes closest to the destination jurisdiction?
  8. 08
    Failover Availability
    If the primary path degrades, is a compliant alternative path available?
python
import corridor
client = corridor.Client(seat_id='seat_8f3k2...', region='us-east')

06 / Use Cases

Built for teams that run multi-jurisdiction AI workloads.

Corridor does not ask you to change your carriers, your Kubernetes distribution, or your compliance tooling. It enforces sovereignty at the path-selection layer.

You operate AI workloads across multiple jurisdictions where some flows can cross borders and others cannot. Corridor enforces that distinction at the network layer, not in application code.

  • Multi-Jurisdiction AI Workloads

    Operating AI across jurisdictions where some flows can cross borders and others cannot. Corridor enforces that constraint at the path layer, not in application code.

  • Regulated Enterprise WAN

    HIPAA, ITAR, and financial workloads needing a network layer that fails closed when no compliant path exists — not one that routes via public internet as a fallback.

  • BGP Replacement for AI Infrastructure

    BGP convergence is too slow for AI inference SLAs. Corridor provides sub-50ms failover without requiring BGP reconfiguration.

  • Edge AI Fleet Management

    Managing WAN connectivity across dozens or hundreds of edge locations with heterogeneous carrier availability. Corridor provides unified path management across all sites.

  • Mobile and Broadband Edge

    iOS/Android apps and on-premises edge devices connecting to sovereign AI infrastructure. Corridor manages mobile/broadband carrier peering alongside enterprise WAN.
