WebMux™ Family of Load Balancers
WebMux load balancers′ flexibility and scalability lets a pool of servers (such as Web servers, FTP servers, email servers, Web 2.0 application servers, database servers, A/V servers, etc.) to be created and managed and budgeting to be done incrementally instead of making a large up-front capital outlay.

Multi-Layer Traffic Management (Layers 2/3/4/5/7)
One of the main reasons to use a load balancer is to increase the capacity of IP servers (such as Web servers, application servers, email servers, FTP servers, terminal servers, Citrix servers, etc). WebMux load balancers can share the transaction load among multiple servers, making them appear as one large virtual server.
In addition to transparently clustering multiple servers and automatically balancing traffic between them, WebMux is able to direct designated traffic to the appropriate servers based on content. This permits traffic to not ony be distributed evenly between multiple content-identical IP servers but also traffic that must be routed to particular servers to be done so automatically.
High Availability/Failover
WebMux ensures high availability for IP servers. If a server in a server pool fails, WebMux will automatically bypass the failed server and notify the appropriate parties by calling a pager or sending an email. WebMux has built-in high-level protocol and health checking which maintains communication with the services on the server to make sure they are running and healthy.
High Performance
By employing a unique routing algorithm, WebMux achieves persistent connections without sacrificing performance. With NAT (in-path), Direct (out-of-path) or Tansparent (bridged) load balancing, WebMux can handle huge amounts of traffic with ease. In Direct mode, WebMux's high-end model can handle up to 30,000,000 concurrent connections.
DnsMux™
DnsMux™ is an intelligent DNS server that can ensure the uptime and of Web- and other IP-based applications by diverting traffic away from failed servers to servers at one or more different geographical locations, while also ensuring that users worldwide are connected to the best servers to meet performance and content objectives. Data Sheet
Availability of hosting servers becomes harder to manage when they are at different locations, so further challenges arise as to how to handle scheduled downtime – and, even more difficult, unscheduled downtime due to failure – of servers that are out of reach, while ensuring demands for continuous availability to users worldwide. DnsMux facilitates servers or entire sites to be taken out of operation at will, all from a Web-based interface anywhere in the world.
