Singapore Mobile Content Provider Accelerates with Juniper Networks.BuzzCity Deploys Juniper DX Application 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 Platform SUNNYVALE, Calif. -- Juniper Networks Juniper Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ: JNPR) is an information technology company based in Sunnyvale, California and founded in 1996. The company designs and sells Internet Protocol network products and services. , Inc. (Nasdaq: JNPR JNPR Juniper Networks, Inc. (stock symbol) ) today announced that Singapore-based BuzzCity Pte Ltd PTE LTD Private Limited ., one of Asia's leading mobile content providers, has deployed the Juniper Networks DX 3200 load balancing and application acceleration platform to speed up performance on its content servers. BuzzCity's servers deliver mobile content to handheld devices and cellular mobile phones in 38 countries through its MyGamma mobile sites. The DX platform increases BuzzCity's network efficiency by leveraging TCP (1) (Transmission Control Protocol) The reliable transport protocol within the TCP/IP protocol suite. TCP ensures that all data arrive accurately and 100% intact at the other end. multiplexing and global server load balancing  This article is written like a personal reflection or and may require .Please [ improve this article] by rewriting this article in an .

The DX solution also increases content performance by dynamically balancing the traffic load between BuzzCity's servers. "Juniper's advanced application load balancing and acceleration solution optimizes the tremendous number of intermittent, concurrent data requests to our mobile content system while lowering total infrastructure cost of ownership," said Clifford Chew, BuzzCity. "We are now easily supporting a 60:1 client-to-server ratio and the acceleration is achieved without additional bandwidth purchase or forklift upgrades to our existing backend systems. The DX platform is also easily managed by our IT staff." The Juniper Networks DX 3200 load balancing and application acceleration platform offloads core networking and I/O (Input/Output) The transfer of data between the CPU and a peripheral device. Every transfer is an output from one device and an input to another. See PC input/output. I/O - Input/Output responsibilities from Web and application servers to increase the performance of Web applications. The device also simplifies and improves data center architectures by replacing numerous point products. GSLB capability allows server load to be distributed across servers that are not in the same physical location. By incorporating critical security functionality and providing enhanced Web performance and application availability in an easy-to-manage, flexible appliance, the DX server load balancing and acceleration platform is proving to be a critical element of the new data center. "Technologies originally developed for an earlier era of Internet access See how to access the Internet. are underperforming today's requirements," said Brad Gray, vice president of Asia South Pacific for Juniper Networks. "Our DX platform fills the need for an advanced load balancing and acceleration solution that delivers performance without increasing data center complexity or incurring administrative overhead. Companies such as BuzzCity that are dependent on speedy access to their content and applications are deriving extra value from their infrastructure investment through Juniper's innovative solutions."
