Whitepaper: Advanced Load Balancing - 8 Must Have Features for Today's Network Demands

Early-generation server load balancers are tried and true solutions for improving the availability and scalability of an organization’s application infrastructure. Nonetheless, enterprises that persist in using such products run the risk of exposing themselves and their customers to increasingly poor application performance and a seemingly endless stream of application-layer security threats. One option to overcome these shortcomings would be to implement additional, standalone devices that address each of the underlying issues. However, a much more efficient and effective approach is to replace old server load balancers with new Application Delivery Controllers. These tightly integrated appliances not only provide core load-balancing capabilities, but also deliver the highest levels of security and performance for today’s business-critical Web applications. Furthermore, the eight criteria detailed in this paper can be used to help ensure that enterprises select a solution that is truly best of breed.
