LoadBalancing solutions

Load balancing has many uses in IT. From a cybersecurity perspective, it is a technology that increases the availability of services and applications. Primarily, it is about ensuring scalability and dynamic performance increases, but current methods that enable load balancing between datacentres, for example, also provide a view of load-balancing as ensuring high availability.

In addition to the intelligent distribution of accessing users between available communication links and application servers according to various metrics, load-balancing also helps to optimize traffic and speed it up by compressing and "caching" already downloaded data.

Not to forget the design where it is used as a VPN concentrator to terminate SSL communication of remote users accessing the published web application. This is usually further combined with WAF functions. Therefore, it is possible to find advanced, multi-functional devices combining multiple enumerated technologies in a single box.
