Edgenexus ADC (Application Delivery Controller)
(11)4.8 out of 5
Load Balancers Are Dead... Well, they are not dead, but they have evolved. So, why buy a load balancer, when you can have a new generation Application Delivery Platform that offers advanced easy-to-use load balancing as a feature. The Edge ADP is typically a similar price to a layer 4 load balancer, so future proof your infrastructure the easy way.
