Barracuda Load Balancer:

  • Highly Scalable. The Barracuda Load Balancer ADC is ideal for optimizing application performance. It offloads compute-intensive SSL transactions from the server, preserving resources for applications. In addition, optimization features such as caching, compression, and TCP pooling enable faster application delivery and ensure scalability.
  • Microsoft Certified. Barracuda Load Balancer ADC has been the preferred solution for organizations looking to load balance and secure Microsoft applications. Certified configuration and deployment guides ensure organizations can quickly and easily scale out their Microsoft applications while also securing them against targeted attacks or unauthorized access.
  • Always Available Performance. Using health and performance checks, the Barracuda Load Balancer ADC distributes traffic for efficient use of server resources and employs server failover for high availability, thereby optimizing application performance. Global Server Load Balancing allows redundancy across multiple sites enhancing availability, improving client response time, and speeding disaster recovery.
  • Secure Application Delivery. Application Authentication ensures that only known users are able to access critical applications. Unauthenticated traffic can be prevented from passing through the DMZ. Application security provides superior protection against data loss, DDoS, and all known application-layer attack modalities. Automatic updates ensure comprehensive security for existing and emerging Layer 7 threats such as SQL injections (SQLi), Cross-site Scripting (XSS), and other OWASP Top 10 attacks.
  • Enhance Application Performance on Public & Private Clouds. Today, cloud computing has become a “must-have” to a majority of the enterprise IT community, for reasons ranging from economic gains to technology benefits. Intelligent traffic monitoring capabilities enable Barracuda Load Balancer ADC to distribute traffic efficiently to server resources and employs server failover for high availability. Meanwhile, Global Server Load Balancing enables redundancy across multiple sites, thereby enhancing availability and speeding disaster recovery. Barracuda ADC Load Balancer can be readily plugged into private cloud environments as well as third-party cloud platforms like Amazon Web Services.
