Load Balancing & High Availability

Each company that provides online services knows that a service failure means losses, either in sales or in reputation, or both. Furthermore, different studies show that online buyers do not wait more than 4 seconds for a webpage to show. We provide complete, efficient and scalable solutions to both of these potential problems.

kill two birds with one stone

Our products have been engineered to provide full capabilities in IP load balancing and fault tolerance to any IP based application. Current uses include :

  • - Internet sites with high traffic requirements, including Web, FTP, media streaming, and content delivery networks
  • - Hosted applications using thin-client architectures, such as Windows Terminal Services
  • - Other IP services requiring optimal performance, including SMTP, DNS, RADIUS, TFTP

Our solutions constantly monitor backend servers et check that they work. As soon as a fault is found, the server is moved to a passive state and requests are sent to another server. By using load balancing, requests are distributed to every backend server using a choice of different algorithms. As soon as a faulty server is found, it simply doesn’t get requests anymore. It is of course possible to install a pair of redundant load balancers in order for it not to become the Single Point Of Failure.
