Next-generation applications require that you never compromise on application delivery. In order to meet the demands of video; voice; enterprise apps such as Oracle, SAP, and Microsoft and more; you need the highest levels of performance and resiliency.
In a recent Tolly Group test, Radware’s AppDirector consistently outperformed F5’s BIG-IP on the most essential application networking measures: Layer 7 transaction per seconds (tps), response time, throughput, SSL processing, and security.
Summary Test Results:
- Exhibits over 387K Layer 7 transactions per second (TPS) – more than 3.5X the transactions handled by F5’s BIG-IP 3600 when handling 128-byte objects, and 2.5X better performance, on average, for all object sizes.
- Exhibits an average of 52X and 42X times faster response time than F5’s BIG-IP 1600 and 3600 respectively, for all Layer 7 objects sizes, and up to 219X times faster response time for 512-byte objects.
- Delivers over 3.7 Gbps of consistent throughput when handling 10 HTTP transactions per connections, and object sizes of 1 Kbyte and larger.
- Delivers over 20,000 SSL connections per second (cps), which is 150% of the SSL processing capacity of the BIG-IP 3600, and 340% of the BIG-IP 1600.
- Combats 2X the amount of ICMP and SYN attack packets of BIG-IP 1600 and 3600, while sustaining 1 Gbps of throughput without performance degradation.
