IncentivizedUse Cases and Deployment Scope
We selected the Radware Alteon to be used by our entire organization as the load balancer and security gateway to our web applications. We had a need to replace our aging infrastructure with something more capable and selected these devices after extensive research and testing.
Pros
- Virtualization
Cons
- The software web application is beyond terrible, in most of the cases the web was broken or did not have similar functionality the command line interface had.
- The command line interface wasn't a natural looking interface, it was very fumbled and while it ran on Linux, the interface was all menus and sub-menus.
- When enabling different pools for different web services, when a new pool was activated, the old pool connections were all reset instead of allowing HTTP sessions to naturally expire.
Likelihood to Recommend
These devices caused more problems for our company than benefits, I would never recommend these to colleagues.
