jetNEXUS Enterprise Load Balancer

High performance, scalable load balancing and enterprise traffic management

The jetNEXUS Enterprise Load Balancer offers the performance, resilience and flexibility previously only found in the most expensive appliances. The intelligent traffic management feature uses Rulebuilder™ to enable the Enterprise Load Balancer to resiliently manage, optimize and secure all the traffic on your network from one central point.

The jetNEXUS Enterprise Load Balancer delivers:

Evaluate the jetNEXUS Enteprise Load Balancer

Resilient Load Balancing

Create a fully fault-tolerant cluster of server machines by protecting against failures of back-end server nodes and front-end load balancer units

Application Acceleration

Improve the performance, reliability and scalability of application services such as web, mail, news, FTP and database protocols, through a combination of SSL and WAN offload, connection management, content compression, performance and health monitoring, and automatic fail-over in the event of hardware or software failure.

Rulebuilder Traffic Optimisation

Redirect traffic to specific servers using content-aware routing policies, to take advantage of different applications' capabilities and to reserve capacity for premium customers. The ELB also supports a wide range of session persistence methods.

Traffic Visualisation and Reporting

Real-time reporting and historical trend graphs of the performance of your network from a single user interface to enable planning for future capacity requirements and rapid fault isolation, reducing the time to fix.

Greater Capacity

The ELB’s unique process architecture ensures it can handle more transactions, more content inspection rules, more application services and more back-end servers. Its price:performance ratio surpasses all other traffic management and load balancing solutions available on the market ensuring you achieve an excellent return on your investment.

Upgrade to the jetNEXUS Enterprise Traffic Manager for Content Caching, Service Level Monitoring and Bandwidth Management.

ELB Feature

Benefit

Layer 7 Server Load Balancing

Operating at the application protocol level increases functionality with features such as URL switching, cookie based persistence and request scanning

RuleBuilder

To construct content-aware load balancing and routing decisions for intelligent traffic management. GUI-based creation of rules which are stored in the Catalog for re-use.

Connection Draining

Allows you to safely remove back-end servers without interrupting any user connections or sessions.

Connection Management

Optimises the performance of TCP/IP and manages stress on web servers. Key to high performance load balancing

Application Acceleration

Acceleration algorithms deliver compressed, optimised content for superb page delivery and excellent end user experience

High-performance SSL Offload

Remove the overhead of CPU intensive encryption from your web servers basically minimising the performance impact on the server pool.

HTTP Content Compression

Rule based compression improves performance and delivers bandwidth savings.

Active/Active failover configuration

Deploy ALB-X Load balancers in a high availability pair to enable fail over and remove any single point of failure, eliminating service downtime for your online platform

Multiple session persistence modes

To ensure session integrity.

Advanced Server Health Monitoring

To detect and route around problem servers – from simple ping and TCP tests to full web GETs

Comprehensive Traffic Visualisation

For trend analysis and fault isolation

Advanced Reporting & Logging

Advanced reporting/logging options and real time performance and availability stats for comprehensive monitoring and analysis

Compatibility

RoHS compliant, PCI DSS Compliant, FCC approved

Easy Management

Secure web based interface for easy management and flexible configuration and changes. Simple,fast deployment with jetNEXUS Discovery Tool for automatic detection.
