In the past, standard load balancers and application delivery controllers were based on a best effort approach where all resources are shared between served applications. But unlike previous load balancers, Radware's next-generation application delivery controller, Alteon NG, is designed to ensure application SLA. Comprised of four different components, Radware's Alteon NG provides application SLA assurance with complete fault isolation. Application Performance Monitoring (APM) delivers real-time monitoring and proactive SLA management, while FastView delivers a web performance optimization solution for application acceleration and front end optimization.
