The two companies offer a joint solution combining Radware's Cache Server Director (CSD) with CacheFlow cIQ Content Accelerators to enhance performance, scalability, reliability and return on investment of Internet and intranet applications.
Radware's CSD Application Switch, combined with CacheFlow's Content Accelerators, provides high availability, redundancy, and fault tolerance in the delivery of content to the requesting user. With these capabilities, service providers and enterprises can quickly and more effectively deploy reliable content distribution networks.
"CacheFlow's experience and know-how in the content delivery arena make them an impressive addition to Radware's long list of partners," said Arik Ziv, VP Business Development at Radware. "The combined Radware-CacheFlow solution will optimize network performance, providing users with a best of breed solution for content delivery services."
The Radware CSD is a hardware-based ITM device deployed on the network, redirecting Internet traffic to local content delivery device like the CacheFlow appliances. CacheFlow's cIQ Content Accelerators improve network performance by distributing content and offloading origin Web servers. With CacheFlow cIQ Content Delivery Solutions, content is intelligently distributed and delivered, resulting in faster response times and maximum utilization of network bandwidth. CacheFlow enables e-Businesses to achieve stronger customer loyalty and higher online profitability since more transactions can be served through a lower cost infrastructure.
"Our work with Radware enhances the performance of CacheFlow cIQ Content Delivery Solutions," said Patrick Harr, VP of Marketing at CacheFlow. "The cIQ-Powered solution can be added to the network in minutes, becomes more effective with time and requires almost no hand-holding."
In networks that employ multiple CacheFlow appliances, the CSD provides optimal utilization of Internet access and content delivery resources. The CSD sits logically between the CacheFlow appliances and the Internet, intercepting user requests and redirecting them to the most available delivery device. The CSD optimizes the CacheFlow appliance resources by intelligently load balancing between delivery devices, detecting server and networks failures, and eliminating duplication of content.
Both Radware and CacheFlow boast an impressive list of features providing network administrators with crucial capabilities not found in other content delivery solutions. The Radware and CacheFlow solution is designed to be installed in minutes and require almost no administration. Both products install seamlessly with little or no configuration and require little management. Together the products offer high availability and reliability able to handle the most robust network requirements. Deploying multiple CSD's in the network creates fault tolerance and redundancy while CacheFlow devices perform restarts with no human intervention.
