New Citrix NetScaler Delivers Record Breaking Secure Application DeliveryNew NetScaler 22000 Series Offers Industry's Highest SSL Scalability and Over 3 Tbps of Application Layer Throughout |
Today Citrix announced the NetScaler® MPX™ 22000 series, the most powerful 2048-bit and 4096-bit SSL enabled application delivery controller (ADC) available with Citrix NetScaler TriScale™ technology. In a 2U appliance form factor, with over 500,000 SSL 2048-bit transactions per second per appliance, NetScaler, the ADC market leader*, sets an industry record for SSL capacity, while also delivering the highest L7 capacity in scaling up to 3Tbps of capacity. Top of mind for IT security professionals is the ever increasing number of cyberattacks on Enterprise IT resources and the need to strengthen corporate security postures without incurring exorbitant costs. These attacks are driving a number of key requirements including:
With the massive increases in compute power driving these attacks, the enterprise must likewise be able to scale up its power to resist and block these attacks while at the same time, strengthening the encryption of information flowing in and out of the enterprise. Application level security is a key requirement for the protection of an enterprise or a cloud. Citrix TriScale technology is at the core of the new NetScaler 22000 series. With Citrix TriScale, which scales and secures cloud services, the NetScaler MPX 22000 series is the most powerful 2048-bit SSL capable ADC on the market. The NetScaler 22000 scales up from 40Gbps to over 120 Gbps of true L7 processing in a single appliance with no additional hardware. Using TriScale clustering, the system can further scale out to deliver over 3 Tbps of L7 Application Layer throughput, over one billion SYN flood DoS attacks per second and secure 2048-bit SSL transactions at a rate of 15 million per second. A fully populated NetScaler MPX 22000 cluster has bandwidth to spare when streaming over 300,000 movies in1080p high definition - more than are listed in the Internet Movies Database (IMDB). On the security side, a single appliance can process over twice the number of 2048-SSL transactions per second of the most powerful chassis, fully populated with 8 blades, from its competitor.** Key Facts and Highlights
