The Technology: An Overview
NetScaler delivers more apps to more users with a dramatic reduction in servers and network devices. It reduces server costs by up to 80 per cent and deploys new Web 2.0 Apps without massive infrastructure changes.
NetScaler facilitates:
- Fast TCP connection proxy for three-way handshakes
- Efficient TCP multiplexing engine to offload repetitive network processing from servers
- Advanced SSL acceleration and management with fast co-processing capabilities
- Dynamic in-memory content caching of both static and dynamic content, freeing servers from repeatedly generating the same content
- AppExpert Rate Controls and Surge Protection to shield servers from unwanted traffic
Citrix NetScaler nCore application accelerator technology dramatically increases the performance and scalability of NetScaler MPX platforms. nCore technology breaks the single CPU performance barrier that limits the performance, scalability and extensibility of most Web application accelerator solutions. It is a true 64-bit architecture that is built from the ground up to intelligently distribute packet flows across multiple CPU cores for high-performance parallel processing.
NetScaler nCore application accelerator technology delivers a 7X increase in performance and scalability and provides new levels of advanced web application delivery controller performance for even the most challenging web applications.
At Citrix R&D India
NetScaler is a high-quality, robust product that speaks for itself. Starting as a first generation load balancer, NetScaler has evolved to become multi-featured, comprehensive application delivery solution. A strong player in the application delivery space, Amazon, Yahoo, and MSN use NetScaler.
India is one of the few locations that shares proximity between products and engineering for a range of product groups. There is revenue ownership, opportunity for collaborative dialogue and interactions to offer solutions, rather than individual products. More than 50 per cent of the work is done here, covering every aspect of the product lifecycle.
Here, we validate that the product will function as specified, through intelligent testing, by understanding customer usage, and drawing feature comparisons with competitor products.
