Now with 99.99% Uptime SLA & SOC 2 Type II Certified

The Edge Gateway Built for
Persistent, Real-time Data

ZipII routes millions of concurrent WebSocket connections through our globally distributed edge network — with sub-millisecond latency, zero-trust security, and no proprietary SDKs.

Unlike general-purpose API gateways, ZipII is purpose-built for persistent, stateful, high-throughput connections — not HTTP request/response cycles.

Engineered for Scale

A globally distributed network designed to handle persistent connections and high-throughput data streams.

Global Edge Routing

Traffic is automatically routed to the nearest of 40+ edge nodes, bypassing public internet congestion. Anycast routing guarantees minimum P99 latency regardless of client location.

🔒

Zero-Trust Architecture

Every connection requires UUID-based token authentication before data flows. All traffic is encrypted end-to-end via TLS 1.3. Tokens are short-lived and rotate automatically.

🌊

Persistent WebSockets

Maintain millions of concurrent bi-directional connections with built-in auto-reconnect, exponential backoff, and full session state recovery after network interruption.

🔀

Channel Multiplexing

A single WebSocket connection can carry unlimited logical channels. Route data to different consumers, devices, or processing pipelines without opening additional connections.

📦

Binary & JSON Payloads

Send raw binary frames for sensor telemetry or structured JSON for event-driven workflows. No schema lock-in — the gateway is protocol-agnostic above the transport layer.

📊

Real-time Observability

Live dashboard with connection counts, per-channel throughput, error rates, and latency percentiles. Webhook alerts and Prometheus-compatible metrics export available on all paid plans.

🆚

vs. AWS API Gateway

AWS charges per million messages and times out WebSockets after 10 minutes. ZipII maintains indefinite persistent connections with no per-message cost model.

🆚

vs. Pusher / Ably

Built-for-pub-sub SaaS, not raw telemetry pipelines. ZipII supports arbitrary binary payloads, custom auth, and dedicated infrastructure at 1/3 the cost at scale.

🆚

vs. Self-hosted MQTT

MQTT brokers require your own ops team. ZipII delivers enterprise WebSocket routing with full SLA guarantees, compliance certifications, and 24/7 support — zero infrastructure to manage.

🆚

vs. Cloudflare Durable Objects

Durable Objects require Cloudflare Workers code. ZipII is a standalone gateway — connect any device, any language, any platform with a standard WebSocket client.

Trusted Across Industries

From factory floors to financial exchanges — ZipII powers real-time infrastructure in the world's most demanding environments.

Smart Grid & Energy Monitoring

Aggregate meter readings, solar output, and grid load data from distributed energy assets in real-time. ZipII's edge nodes allow energy providers to meet strict data residency requirements — data from EU assets never leaves EU infrastructure, while US assets route through US edge nodes, all on a single platform.

Developer-First Integration

Connect using standard WebSockets — no proprietary SDKs, no vendor lock-in. Any language, any platform, any device. If it speaks WebSocket, it works with ZipII.

Gateway Endpoint: wss://gateway.zipii.xyz/api/data

Device UUID tokens are generated via the Management API. Tokens expire hourly by default and rotate without dropping connections. See onboarding docs for token scoping and permission levels.

JavaScript Python Go Rust C / C++ Java C# Arduino MicroPython
// 1. Connect to nearest edge node (auto-routed) const stream = new WebSocket('wss://gateway.zipii.xyz/api/data'); stream.onopen = () => { // 2. Authenticate with your Device UUID token stream.send(JSON.stringify({ "action": "authenticate", "token": process.env.DEVICE_UUID, "channels": ["telemetry", "alerts"] })); }; stream.onmessage = (event) => { // 3. Handle multiplexed frames across channels const { channelId, payload } = parseBuffer(event.data); if (channelId === 'alerts') handleAlert(payload); else processTelemetry(payload); }; stream.onclose = (e) => { // 4. Auto-reconnect with exponential backoff scheduleReconnect(e.code); };

What Engineers Say

From senior engineers evaluating infrastructure to CTOs scaling their platforms.

★★★★★

"We migrated off a self-hosted MQTT cluster that required 3 engineers to maintain. ZipII replaced it in two weeks. The persistent connection model and zero-timeout policy were the deciding factors — every other solution we evaluated either timed out or charged per-message fees that didn't scale."

DK
David K.
VP Engineering, Industrial IoT Platform
★★★★★

"Our trading feed needed sub-millisecond delivery to 4,000 simultaneous subscribers. We benchmarked ZipII against two competitors. The P99 latency numbers weren't close. We've been live in production for 14 months without a single SLA breach."

SR
Sarah R.
CTO, Algorithmic Trading Firm
★★★★★

"The EU data residency guarantee was non-negotiable for our energy utility customers under GDPR. ZipII was the only gateway vendor that could contractually guarantee EU-only routing with a signed DPA out of the box. Setup was done in a day."

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from engineering and procurement teams.

On the Enterprise Edge plan, bandwidth above 500 GB is billed at $0.40/GB. You'll receive an email alert at 80% and 100% of your included limit each month. On Custom plans, your bandwidth ceiling and overage terms are defined in your contract — many customers opt for a hard cap with automatic throttling rather than overage billing.
ZipII edge nodes track session state for up to 60 seconds after a connection drops. When a device reconnects, the session resumes automatically — no re-authentication required unless the token has expired. Undelivered messages queued during the outage are flushed to the device immediately upon reconnect. The client-side reconnect logic uses exponential backoff (configurable base interval) to prevent thundering-herd reconnections from large fleets.
No. ZipII is a transparent transport infrastructure provider. We do not inspect, parse, log, or store the contents of any data frames. The only metadata we retain is connection-level: source IP, timestamp, bytes transferred, and channel identifiers — used solely for billing and abuse prevention. This is contractually guaranteed in our DPA and reflected in our SOC 2 audit report.
ZipII is SOC 2 Type II certified — the audit report is available to Enterprise and Custom plan customers under NDA. We are GDPR-compliant and provide a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) for EU customers. HIPAA Business Associate Agreements (BAAs) are available on Custom plans. ISO 27001 certification is in progress with a target date of Q3 2025.
Yes. On the Custom plan, you can configure geo-fenced routing rules that ensure data from specific device groups or authentication tokens is only processed by edge nodes within a defined region (e.g., EU-only, US-only). This is enforced at the network level and documented in your Data Processing Agreement for GDPR and similar regulations. The Enterprise Edge plan provides regional preference routing but does not offer hard geo-fencing guarantees.
Most teams are streaming live data within 24–48 hours of signing up. Standard WebSocket integration requires minimal code changes regardless of your current stack. Enterprise customers receive a dedicated onboarding engineer for the first 30 days. Custom plan customers receive full migration support, including architecture review, side-by-side load testing, and a cutover plan to minimize production risk when migrating from another gateway.
Enterprise Edge customers receive service credits for any calendar month where uptime falls below the guaranteed 99.99% (approximately 52 minutes of downtime/year). Credits are tiered: 10% monthly credit for 99.9–99.99% uptime, 25% for 99.0–99.9%, and 50% for below 99.0%. Credits are applied automatically to the following billing cycle — no manual claim required. Custom SLA terms with financial penalties beyond credits are available on Custom contracts.
Yes — private edge node deployment is available on Custom plans. ZipII can be deployed as a managed service into your AWS, Azure, or GCP account, or into an on-premises environment. You maintain data sovereignty while ZipII manages the software layer, updates, and monitoring. This option is popular with government, defense, and heavily regulated financial customers. Contact our sales team for a private deployment architecture review.
