Description

Whether you need to expand an application from one server to two or need to deliver an application to millions of users across the globe, you’re going to need an application delivery controller (ADC). ADCs provide basic application scalability, availability and reliability of earlier server load balancers and include advanced features for today’s dynamic, content-rich applications like hardware-based secure traffic acceleration, HTTP compression and virtual environment integration. Every ADC is a server load balancer first with advanced features layered on top of that core.

FortiADC Application Delivery Controllers:

The FortiADC line of hardware and virtual Application Delivery Controllers provide unmatched Server Load
Balancing performance whether you need to scale an application across a few servers in a single data center or
serve multiple applications to millions of users around the globe. With included SSL Offloading, HTTP Compression, Global Server Load Balancing, Firewall and Link Load Balancing, they offer the performance, features and security you need at a single-all inclusive price. Advanced models include 10-GE SFP+ ports, hardware-based SSL ASICs, dedicated management channels and dual power supplies to meet the demands of datacenter environments with L4 throughput up to 50 Gbps. FortiADCs include:

• Advanced server load balancing for scalability and resilience of your infrastructure by distributing application
  load over multiple servers.
• Caching of static content to reduce the load on the server and network infrastructure, increasing application
  responsiveness and reducing delivery delays.
•  Dynamic HTTP Compression to accelerate network performance without using vital server resources.
• Hardware and software-based SSL Offloading to reduce the performance impact on your server infrastructure.
•  Link Load Balancing to distribute traffic over multiple ISPs to increase resilience and reduce the need for costly bandwidth upgrades.
• Global Server Load Balancing to manage traffic across multiple geographical locations for disaster recovery and improved application response times.
