Citrix announced a new edition of its popular application delivery product line targeted specifically for the needs of small-to-medium enterprises. For the first time, enterprises of all sizes can now take advantage of the same technology that powers many of the world’s largest and most demanding Web applications, including customers such as Google, E*Trade, MSN, Merrill Lynch, Dow Jones, 7-Eleven and United Airlines. The new Citrix® NetScaler® Application Switch Standard Edition (SE), available today from certified Citrix channel partners worldwide, offers high-speed load balancing and application acceleration in an easy-to-use, cost-effective solution that can be upgraded to include more sophisticated optimization capabilities as needed.
The NetScaler Application Switch SE is deployed in front of application servers to provide layer 4-7 traffic management and application acceleration. In addition to improving the end-user experience, the NetScaler Application Switch SE offloads compute-intensive processes – such as secure socket layer (SSL) security and HTTP data compression – from application servers, enabling existing resources to support more applications and more users. It also can monitor the health of application resources and direct traffic to available servers to improve business continuity.
