The DX application load balancing and acceleration platform resides in the data center in front of content servers, where it serves as a full request/response-aware bi-directional HTTP proxy for processing incoming and outgoing requests. By relieving servers of CPU-intensive tasks, the DX platform makes servers much more efficient, accelerating the performance of web-enabled applications and improving the productivity of remote, branch office and mobile employees accessing centralized business applications. As a fundamental service, the DX platform delivers full Layer 4-7 server load balancer (SLB) functionality. Equipped with multiple load-balancing methods and sticky modes, the DX platform can load-balance any application that needs to be scaled or made highly available. The DX platform performs server, application and data center health checks ranging from simple ICMP ping and Layer 7 HTTP content validation to scriptable health-check facilities to verify that applications, whether custom or off the shelf, are healthy before any requests are sent to the server. Full server/connection management features ensure that servers and services can be inserted or deactivated at any time in a live network without causing a service outage. The DX platform provides transport-level security by providing full Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) session termination for any Web or IP application, offloading this task from content servers and providing an extra layer of protection for critical data center resources. Delivering hardware-assisted SSL termination for high-capacity requirements, the DX platform can secure all applications to the desired level. The DX platform also acts as an "internal firewall," protecting the Web tier and content servers from malicious TCP and HTTP/web-based attacks by authenticating all users and HTTP sessions before allowing access. The DX platform can provide per-request authorization by leveraging the existing RADIUS and LDAP infrastructure, secure data and connections, protect servers from denial-of-service (DoS) attacks and SYN floods, and provide other security features based on native HTTP protocol communication.
