The product was chosen for its innovative local and global ITM capabilities that include traffic management, bandwidth management, application security and application health monitoring.
"Radware's Web Server Director product line packages an award-winning feature set in the latest high-performance hardware available in the industry," said Roy Zisapel, president and CEO of Radware Ltd. "We designed our WSD Application Switch for enterprises, e-commerce firms and service providers that demand not only superior network performance with wire speed switching, but also the richest and most comprehensive feature set available on the market."
This year, the winners of the Network Computing Well-Connected Awards will be revealed at a gala event held on the evening before one of the industry's largest trade shows, NetWorld+Interop 2001 Las Vegas. All Finalists will be highlighted in the May 14th issue of Network Computing and also on Network Computing Online at www.networkcomputing.com.
The WSD family of application switches is specially designed for networks to redistribute heavy traffic loads to the healthiest server. It integrates bandwidth management, application security, load balancing and health monitoring in one traffic manager. The WSD traffic management solution offers eight Fast Ethernet ports and two Gigabit Ethernet ports for high availability configurations, providing high throughput and low network latency power.
"No other annual awards program in the industry uses hand-on evaluations to choose its winners," said Fritz Nelson, Publisher of CMP's Network Computing. "Our editors worked at length to research and test the best offerings in the enterprise arena. Being named a Well-Connected Award Finalist is a true reflection of product quality rather than merely product popularity or marketing effectiveness."
