Load Balancer
  Load Balancer  
Zeus Load Balancer (ZLB) is a powerful, fault-tolerant and high-performance software load balancing solution for providers of clustered network services. Through a combination of content-aware traffic management, performance and health monitoring, and automatic fail-over in the event of hardware or software failure, ZLB adds load balancing intelligence to your services.
 
  In More Depth
Zeus Load Balancer offers far more than a traditional load balancing solution. As a software application, its capabilities bring much more flexibility and fine-grained application layer control than is possible with most pure-hardware load balancing solutions. Because Zeus Load Balancer supports a range of platforms and operating systems and runs on commodity hardware, its performance can easily and cost-effectively be grown as required.
 
  Resilient Load Balancing More Information  
Zeus Load Balancer allows you to create a fully fault-tolerant cluster of server machines by protecting against failures of back-end server machines and front-end load balancer machines. Providing that sufficient balancer and server machines are functioning, the cluster will continue to operate without failure.
 
  Intelligent Clusters More Information  
Many of today's most challenging load balancing issues involve recognizing and understanding the nature of individual web requests and responses. Zeus Load Balancer can read and understand requests, and then direct appropriately.
 
  Load Balancing Performance More Information  
Zeus Load Balancer improves the performance, reliability and scalability of TCP/IP based network services such as web, mail, news, FTP and database protocols, through a combination of content inspection, performance and health monitoring, and automatic fail-over in the event of hardware or software failure.
 
  Service Management  
Zeus Load Balancer is best deployed close to the servers it is managing, making sophisticated load balancing decisions and closely monitoring the hosted services. Zeus Load Balancer integrates seamlessly with Zeus Web Server, and can be easily deployed with Apache, Sun or Microsoft IIS web servers, avoiding expensive tie-ins and enhancing existing infrastructures.
