Barracuda Load Balancer
Powerful, easy to use and affordable solution for distributing network traffic across multiple servers. Designed to achieve high availability and security objectives, the Barracuda Load Balancer integrates server load balancing and network intrusion prevention into an affordable and easy-to-use solution. The Barracuda Load Balancer provides distribution of traffic across multiple servers, integrated protection from network intrusions and comprehensive failover capabilities in case of server failure. With no per server or per port license fees, the Barracuda Load balancer offers the most affordable solution for scaling and protecting mission-critical data centers.
High Availability and Scalability For high traffic environments, the Barracuda Load Balancer can distribute traffic based on several scheduling algorithms, including round robin, server weighting and least connections. For applications requiring persistence, the Barracuda Load Balancer can maintain state using client IP addresses and client cookies. The Barracuda Load Balancer’s integrated Service Monitor ensures that servers and their associated applications are always operational. In the event of server or application outage, the Barracuda Load Balancer facilitates automatic failover among servers to ensure continuous availability. To mitigate risks associated with failures of the load balancers themselves, two Barracuda Load Balancers can be deployed in an active/passive configuration.
Ease of Use and Maintenance To minimize ongoing administration associated with security, the Barracuda Load Balancer automatically receives Energize Updates for the latest intrusion prevention definitions and security updates. Energize Updates are distributed hourly by Barracuda Central, an advanced technology center where engineers continuously monitor and alleviate the latest Internet threats.
