Global Server Load Balancing

IP- and Web-based applications are the fundamental drivers for business operations, revenue and profits for most organizations. Downtime is never an option irrespective of the reason for its cause, and risk of downtime from catastrophic failures at the data center level must be a key consideration in any business-critical infrastructure planning. Foundry's global load balancing (GSLB) is the industry's most comprehensive and fully standards-based solution to deliver IP, Web and VoIP application scalability and redundancy across multiple data center locations.

Geographic Redundancy and Scalability Solutions

Content Switching

IP and Web applications are at the heart of every business operation. Application performance, availability, scalability and security are the critical challenges that Enterprise and Service Provider customers face. Intelligent Layer 4-7 load balancing switches solve these challenges and create massively scalable and always-on applications. They allow businesses to leverage commodity servers to build highly sophisticated and differentiated application infrastructure to serve the businesses' mission-critical needs.

Application Availability and Scalability Solutions

Web Acceleration

Offloading connection management from the application servers immediately increases their available capacity to handle application transactions more effectively. It also provides robust security to server and application infrastructure, which increases the overall application availability. Recovering and redeploying server resources for the real purpose of supporting application traffic will protect investment in server farms and increase the ROI (Return on Investment). High-performance Layer 4-7 load balancing switches are widely used as the technology of choice to increase application availability, security and response time.

Web Optimization and Acceleration Solutions
