jetNEXUS New ISO Software Load Balancer “Delivers on all Counts”
jetNEXUS receives gold award in independent testing as it extends the powerful benefits of advanced ADC technology to the masses with the launch of its fully integrated load balancing software product.
Berkshire, UK: 4th April 2010 -jetNEXUS™, a leading provider of ADC’s (Application Delivery Controllers) has today announced exceptional results in an independent test of its ALB-X ISO product. .
The jetNEXUS ALB-X ISO is a fully integrated software load balancer product complete with operating system and installer in one, enabling clients for the first time ever to take the powerful architecture of the jetNEXUS ALB-X solution and build onto almost any standard server hardware platform.
The report, conducted by Broadband Testing praises the jetNEXUS ALB-X ISO for its simplicity. “Key to the success of this product is its easy deployment with an automated install that requires no understanding of the underlying Linux OS, “ stated Steve Broadhead, Director of Broadband – Testing. “All that is required is to simply boot the jetNEXUS ISO on the server hardware’s CD drive and let the product build itself. When completed, you have a full jetNEXUS ALB-X based on your chosen server platform. Important to add is that whilst much of the complication is removed from the installation and configuration process of implementing a load balancer, the ALB-X ISO retains its powerful performance and full feature set and defaults to an active/active configuration for high availability and resilience,” Broadhead added.
“We feel that the ALB-X ISO demonstrates jetNEXUS’ innovative approach to ADC technology solutions,” said Greg Howett, CEO, jetNEXUS. “The ISO displays our commitment to platform flexibility. The market has changed and today our customers have complex environments consisting of hardware, virtualisation and even cloud components. Our clients demand a flexible solution to drop within their networks with minimal disruption and maximum performance. The familiar jetNEXUS GUI is consistent across all of our ALB-X platforms," adding:
“The jetNEXUS ALB-X ISO also has clear green credentials. Eliminating the need for expensive dedicated and specialised hardware, the ISO encourages the re-provisioning of existing redundant servers into full-on load-balancing and Application Delivery Control devices as a cost effective and environmentally responsible solution.” Howett explained, “Enabling our customers to reutilise existing hardware further demonstrates our commitment to both economic and environmental savings.”
