Coyote Point Systems was a manufacturer of computer networking equipment for application traffic management, also known as server load balancing. In March 2013, the company was acquired by Fortinet. [1] The company introduced hardware-based server load balancers nearly simultaneously with other large companies such as F5 in the late 1990s. [2]
F5, Inc. is an American technology company specializing in application security, multi-cloud management, online fraud prevention, application delivery networking (ADN), application availability & performance, network security, and access & authorization.
Load balancing can optimize response time and avoid unevenly overloading some compute nodes while other compute nodes are left idle. Load balancing is the subject of research in the field of parallel computers. Two main approaches exist: static algorithms, which do not take into account the state of the different machines, and dynamic ...
A load-balanced switch is a switch architecture which guarantees 100% throughput with no central arbitration at all, at the cost of sending each packet across the crossbar twice. Load-balanced switches are a subject of research for large routers scaled past the point of practical central arbitration. [vague]
Network load balancing is the ability to balance traffic across two or more WAN links without using complex routing protocols like BGP.. This capability balances network sessions like Web, email, etc. over multiple connections in order to spread out the amount of bandwidth used by each LAN user, thus increasing the total amount of bandwidth available.
Load balancing or load distribution may refer to: Load balancing (computing), balancing a workload among multiple computer devices; Load balancing (electrical power), the storing of excess electrical power by power stations during low demand periods, for release as demand rises; Network load balancing, balancing network traffic across multiple ...
Avi Networks is a company that provides software for the delivery of enterprise applications in data centers and clouds. Acquired by VMware in 2019, Avi Networks provides application services including local and global load balancing, application acceleration, security, application visibility, performance monitoring, service discovery, and container networking services.
A fault-tolerant computer system can be achieved at the internal component level, at the system level (multiple machines), or site level (replication).. One would normally deploy a load balancer to ensure high availability for a server cluster at the system level. [3]
