Radware Wins TMC’s 2011 Cloud Computing Excellence Award
March 2012 by Marc Jacob
Radware announced that TMC, publishers of Cloud Computing magazine has named Radware’s ADC-VX™ application delivery controller (ADC) virtualization platform winner of its 2011 Cloud Computing Excellence Award.
Radware’s ADC-VX is the industry’s first ADC virtualization and consolidation technology, specifically designed to combine ADC hardware devices into fewer hardware units. Cloud service providers benefit from Radware ADC-VX’s functionality as a delivery model for on-demand ADC services that can be offered to their end-user customers. It enables real-time provisioning of virtual ADC (vADC) instances while ensuring the resilience and performance predictability needed to provide application delivery offerings backed with high service level agreements (SLAs). Radware’s ADC-VX also delivers fully isolated ADC services to support the cloud provider’s customer or their applications, in solutions containing the industry’s highest density of vADCs to support a wide range of cloud service cost models.
Radware’s ADC-VX enables the use of multiple, virtual ADCs on top of dedicated, specialized ADC hardware — Radware’s high-performing OnDemand Switch® platform. Using a specialized ADC hypervisor, this platform enables the ability to run multiple, virtual ADC services, each of which delivers ADC functionality just like a dedicated physical advanced ADC device. Each virtual ADC instance contains a complete and separated environment of resources, configurations and management including CPU, memory, network and acceleration resources.
Radware’s ADC-VX is a key technology enabler for Radware’s Virtual Application Delivery Infrastructure (VADI®) strategy, which focuses on bringing full agility and efficiency of virtualization to application delivery solutions. Radware VADI is an architecture which transforms computing resources, as well as application delivery and virtualization services, into one integrated, scalable, on-demand application delivery infrastructure.
The Cloud Computing Excellence Awards recognizes companies that have most effectively leveraged cloud computing in their efforts to bring new, differentiated offerings to market.
