Array ADCs are high-performance platforms that distribute traffic across multiple Dell SonicWALL NGFW nodes, interfacing to them through a Dell Networking S-Series switch and providing Layer-3 load balancing to ensure the Dell SonicWALL SuperMassive firewalls perform at the highest possible level. The solution ensures persistent throughput for outbound traffic, as well as inbound traffic such as SIP calls that originate from the WAN.

"With all of our servers situated in a remote co-lo facility, the AG Series is integral to my day," said Matthew Cox, eMeetingsOnline network administrator. "It helps secure all external traffic from any location, and because our event organizers frequently require access into back-end management portals, the built-in two-factor authentication adds an extra layer of security to protect our network and our customers."

Duo Security's two-factor authentication is a perfect complement to Array's AG Series SSL VPN Secure Access Gateways, which provide secure remote and mobile access to enterprise applications and cloud services. Through interoperability with Duo Security, users of AG Series secure access solutions can gain an additional layer of access control, which is often mandated by compliance regulations such as HIPAA and PCI, or desirable due to the confidential nature of materials accessed via the VPN.

Defence and military forces increasingly require a reliable and secure communication infrastructure for transmitting critical applications and data to remote areas. They usually face challenges in accessing confidential data via mobile networks. The nature of work also makes it tough to securely share information across different locations and respond quickly to queries. Array Networks would address such issues related to improving network performance and enhancing the speed of communication in these areas, while ensuring the highest levels of security.

"This recognition of MotionPro further validates our product as ahead of the curve in providing high-quality support for the mobile workforce, ensuring enterprises and their employees can securely and efficiently access their information no matter what device they are using," said Michael Zhao, Array Networks' president and CEO. "We are honored to be included in Info Security's 2015 Products Guide."

"Service providers and enterprises are moving towards cloud and virtualization technologies, but are faced with challenges in maintaining performance and cost-efficiency for networking functions," said Paul Andersen, Director of Marketing for Array Networks. "With the AVX7600, these customers get the best of both worlds - the agility and management efficiency of virtual appliances and the performance and scalability of dedicated appliances."

aCelera has distinguished itself by its availability as a physical appliance from 10Mbps to 1Gbps throughput, as well as its software-based WAN optimization capabilities that support functionality such as compression, deduplication, HTTP, TCP, Common Intern File System (CIFS), Messaging APO (MAPI), Citrix Independent Computing Architecture (ICA), traffic shaping and quality of service (QoS). In addition, aCelera is available as a hardware or a virtual appliance for VMware ESX/ESXi, Microsoft Hyper-V, Citrix XenServer and Windows Server 2008 R2, addressing the demands of the growing types of application deployments.

SSL Offload for Software-as-a-Service

"FIPS 140-2 Level 2 compliance is a critical step in making Array's leading SSL VPN and load balancing solutions available to the broadest cross section of customers," stated Paul Andersen, Director of Marketing for Array Networks. "We've had requests for FIPS not only from end user customers such as government, financial services and healthcare organizations, but also from cloud providers standing up dedicated data centers to serve federal business opportunities. With the new AG1500FIPS and the recently released APV6600FIPS application delivery controller (ADC), Array is positioned to meet stringent customer demands in both traditional and emerging cloud environments."

The enhanced AVX10650 is the only multi-tenant ADC appliance of its kind; by allocating dedicated CPU, SSL, memory and I/O to each instance, IaaS providers can guarantee performance for each customer and enterprises can guarantee performance for each application workload. For example, when divided into 4 instances, each ADC guarantees 28Gbps throughput; and divided into 32 instances, each ADC guarantees 3.5Gbps throughput. Connections per second and SSL transactions per second are similarly guaranteed per instance. To ensure guaranteed uptime for business critical applications, high availability is supported for both AV10650 physical appliances and virtual appliance ADC instances.
