Celestix Releases New CLB4000 Load Balancer Appliance

Celestix Networks has announced the launch of the company's new CLB4000 load balancer appliance. Celestix is introducing the CLB 4000 for network professionals who want to deploy advanced load balancing capabilities for IP-based server applications on easy-to-use appliances, or, to add a layer of high availability to their networks.

CLB4000 appliances offer several load balancing methods to distribute network traffic across servers. These methods include simple weighted round-robin, random, client address hashing and "least resource" based on agent-supplied information. Using a built-in intelligent health-check engine that monitors the health of all the servers in the load balancing pool, CLB4000 appliances switch traffic seamlessly among servers when a spike in traffic warrants intervention or when a server fails.

The CLB4000 is the first load balancer to use the Celestix COSMOS Linux-based appliance engine integrated with Celestix' high-performance Scorpio-X hardware platform. Celestix proprietary technology delivers advanced load balancing capabilities in an easy-to-use, low-cost appliance form factor.

CLB4000 load balancers are the latest addition to Celestix' product lines for network security and optimization that include their MSA ISA Server 2006 firewall appliances and WSA IAG SSL/VPNs that have become the leading sellers in the Microsoft security appliance sector.
