Radware (NASDAQ: RDWR), the leading provider of intelligent integrated solutions for ensuring the fast, reliable and secure delivery of networked and Web-enabled applications over IP, announced today that Vizrea, a digital media innovator, has selected and deployed its Application Front End solution to ensure fast, reliable and secure online service for Vizrea's unique mobile camera phone photo solution.
Vizrea, a Seattle-based startup, founded by a group of former Microsoft executives with key members in the U.S. and Europe, is the first company in the world to offer a complete photo solution for mobile camera phone users. Vizrea's flagship product, Vizrea Snap, is a unique software solution that allows users to securely and automatically move, view and organize digital content between a mobile phone, PC and the Web.
To provide consumers with an optimized user experience, Vizrea has deployed Radware's AppDirector for accelerated application performance, reduced server downtime and continuous network protection from security violations and attacks. AppDirector manages both local and global server availability, enabling Vizrea to transparently scale Radware's solution to support a service offering that will allow subscribers around the world to share and manage photos, movies, audio notes and blog posts created on a mobile camera phone. Vizrea also implemented Radware's APSolute Insite management tool, for site-wide visibility and centralized control and policy management of Web applications, enabling optimum network performance.
Brad Schick, vice president of engineering for Vizrea, said, "After careful testing of different load balancing solutions, we chose Radware's AppDirector and APSolute Insite because it had the best combination of rich features, performance and reliability. We are very satisfied with how easily our server farm could be centrally managed and controlled. Radware also worked closely with Vizrea to ensure its solution was licensed and configured to match our specific needs and requirements."
"We are delighted that Vizrea will be using Radware's APSolute application delivery solution to optimize their revolutionary new digital media consumer service for mobile camera phone users," said Michelle Blank, chief marketing officer at Radware. "As more and more of Vizera subscriber's begin using new phones with increased mega pixel and video capabilities, Radware's application-smart networking technology will enable Vizera to easily scale its network and IP applications to handle increased demands associated with larger file transfers and greater bandwidth consumption."
