RADWARE have released software
version 1.3 for its Cache Server Director (CSD), an intelligent cache server management and load balancing device. The enhancements in the new version are designed to increase the CSD's versatility and increase its compatibility with the major cache server vendors.
The CSD is an IP load balancing switch designed for use in environments that deploy multiple cache servers. The CSD is located logically between user groups and the Internet. It intercepts user requests and redirects them to the most available Cache server. It optimises cache resources by intelligently load balancing between servers, detecting server failure and eliminating content duplication.
