Enterprises and service providers often have to compromise when selecting traffic management products, forced to choose between consumer-level products that lack features and performance, and overly expensive solutions with unneeded bells and whistles A slang English term for exceptional features in some product. In the computer field, it typically refers to functions in software that may be greatly appreciated by some users, even though they may not be necessary most of the time. . The new TMX5000 addresses this problem by offering high-end performance and scalability at a mid-range price point, in addition to providing a set of flexible features and software bundles that allow customers invest as they grow. The product offers integrated layer 4-7 load balancing The fine tuning of a computer system, network or disk subsystem in order to more evenly distribute the data and/or processing across available resources. For example, in clustering, load balancing might distribute the incoming transactions evenly to all servers, or it might redirect them , hardware-based SSL acceleration SSL acceleration is a method of offloading the processor-intensive public key encryption algorithms involved in SSL transactions to a hardware accelerator. Typically, this is a separate card that plugs into a PCI slot in a computer that contains one or more co-processors able to , high-performance caching and hardware-based lossless compression A compression technique that decompresses data back to its original form without any loss. The decompressed file and the original are identical. All compression methods used to compress text, databases and other business data are lossless. ; and is capable of sustaining millions of concurrent connections, securing tens of thousands of SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) The leading security protocol on the Internet. Developed by Netscape, SSL is widely used to do two things: to validate the identity of a Web site and to create an encrypted connection for sending credit card and other personal data. transactions and scaling up to 32 units for future growth.
