CitiStreet
selects Foundry Networks' ServerIron Application Delivery Switches to scale
delivery of internet-based services to more than 11 million benefit plan
participants. CitiStreet is using the ServerIron 450 and 850 switches in two
data center locations. The ServerIron 350, 450 and 850 Series are
high-performance application delivery switches, built with business-critical
resiliency features and are customizable for performance, port density and SSL
acceleration to meet a range of application and data center infrastructure
needs.
Foundry Networks® announced that CitiStreet selected
Foundry's ServerIron® 450 and 850 Series Layer 4-7 application delivery
switches to provide content switching and load balancing for their
customer-facing application and database servers, which support more than 11
million users across 16,500 benefit plans 24x7x365. Foundry worked closely with
CitiStreet to customize a solution that met their current needs for
high-performance and reliability. As CitiStreet grows and adds further clients,
users and services, the infrastructure in place must be able to handle
additional traffic while maintaining high performance. Foundry's ServerIron 450
and 850 switches can scale and be easily upgraded with SSL capabilities and
more processing power in the future to meet their business requirements without
CitiStreet having to replace existing chassis.
CitiStreet is using the ServerIron 450 and 850 switches in
two data center locations to manage the content switching and load balancing of
their application and database servers that interface with customers and
clients on a daily basis in order to retrieve important information in real
time about benefits plans and services. As the integral networking platform for
their geographically distributed infrastructure, the ServerIron 450 switches
are used in conjunction with the front-end customer-facing servers, and the
ServerIron 850 switches are used with the back-end application and database
servers.
The ServerIron 350, 450 and 850 Series are high-performance
application delivery switches in a choice of three respective form factors.
These switches are built with business-critical resiliency features and are
customizable for performance, port density and SSL acceleration to meet a range
of application and data center infrastructure needs. All three switches are
designed with a modular architecture for superior performance and scalability,
and can be expanded to meet growing traffic demands including 10GbE application
delivery. These application delivery switches accelerate Web-based applications
and eliminate downtime caused by server and application failures.
