WAN link optimization has become one of the "must-have" capabilities for virtually any organization requiring reliable Internet connectivity. Multi-location enterprises also require VPN failover to maintain secure and reliable communications for partners, customers and employees. ISPs and ASPs rely on WAN failover and network load balancing for application delivery over the WAN. Additionally, many organizations now rely upon quality of service (QoS) and traffic shaping for “tuning” bandwidth to guaranty delivery of applications over the WAN.
Ecessa’s PowerLink™ enables WAN link redundancy, ISP failover and Internet high-availability among as many as 15 links for important internal and customer applications. If PowerLink detects a link failure it automatically updates the DNS record for your domain so that the server requests are sent to the IP address of your alternate server or server cluster.
