Features and Benefits
 

BENEFIT

FEATURE

Lower TCO
  • TCP offload, buffering and session reuse to remove repetitive network and compute processing from the servers
  • SSL offload to offload expensive SSL processing from servers
  • In-memory content caching to store static and dynamic content, freeing servers from repeatedly generating the same content over and over
  • Multi-level content compression to reduce content on the wire by up to five times, minimizing bandwidth consumption and data congestion
    • Application acceleration
  • TCP optimizations to accelerate the performance of all TCP communications, especially over high-latency or highly congested network links
  • Multi-level content compression to reduce data prior to transmission to users, reducing the amount of data traversing the network and the number of network round trips
  • In-memory content caching to instantaneously serve frequently requested static and dynamic content
    • Application security
  • Citrix Application Firewall to protect HTML and XML web applications and services from both known and unknown application layer attacks
  • L4 DoS protection to help ensure applications stay up even in the face of highly sophisticated network-layer denial-of-service attacks
  • L7 DoS protection to help ensure applications stay up even in the face of highly sophisticated application-layer denial-of-service attacks
  • Content filtering and rewrite to improve security and simplify change management by controlling access, redirecting users and changing or obfuscating application responses
    • Application availability
  • L4 load balancing featuring comprehensive health checks, session persistence mechanisms and load balancing algorithms to ensure traffic is always sent to the most appropriate server
  • L7 content switching on any TCP header or payload value to direct traffic based upon application-level information, enabling further optimization of back-end resources
  • Global Server Load Balancing to enhance disaster recovery by transparently redirecting users to alternate data centers in the event of an outage or interruption
  • AppExpert rate controls to granularly dedicate resources to users, user groups, and specific applications by triggering NetScaler policies based either upon load from a requestor or to an application resource
    • All-in-one virtual appliance
  • Virtual appliance supports VMware ESX/ESXi, Citrix XenServer and Microsoft Hyper-V
  • AppExpert Visual Policy Builder to keep policy development simple and policies supportable by eliminating complex scripts or programs from all NetScaler policies
  • AppExpert service callouts for integrating logic in external applications within NetScaler policies, making NetScaler polices extremely extensible
  • AppExpert templates to encapsulate the entire NetScaler configuration necessary for today's complex web applications, simplifying initial rollout and streamlining management
  • Role-based administration to granularly segment administrative privilege
  • Configuration wizards for simplifying the setup of load balancing, GSLB, and using NetScaler for XenApp, XenDesktop and other key applications
