"Our
solution at the time was running close to the limit of what I was
comfortable with for its rating, but the logical choice for us to move
on to a more powerful same supplier solution was not an option. Cisco
stopped producing a stand alone solution and built the load balancing
technology into a product range that wasn’t suitable for our
needs. The search for a suitable replacement began and as well looking
at offerings from the usual suspects we reached for Google
The two Sledgehammer high availability clustered pairs we bought were
hugely cost effective while at the same time offering the fault
tolerance level ASOS needed to give the confidence to commit to the
service levels ASOS aims to provide its customer base"

A rock solid, 100% fault
tolerant and cost effective solution that is perfect for the cost
conscious IT professional, who does not want to spend the extra
£10k on functionality he will never use, as with most other
vendors. These appliances do exactly what what it says on the tin. I'm
over the moon!

"We
shopped around and compared priced. loadbalancer.org beat the
competition
hands down. And not only that, but it was up and running in minutes,
with a smart,
easy to use interface. Our units have been running for just over 2
years and have
never failed and have been a lifesaver to our organization"

"We distribute large
multi-terabyte global datasets based on satellite remote sensing for
environmental (land use, climate change and biodiversity) research
using Google Earth as a visualisation tool, see here. The loadbalancer enables us
to use many low-cost desktops as servers and achieve better outcomes
than having investing in fewer but high end (high cost) servers. The
loadbalancer has been easy to set up and works like a dream. We can
very cheaply add new server capacity as the demand grows and the
failure of individual servers is also easy and inexpensive to solve
with no disruption to QoS"

a pair of Enterprise load balancer devices for our Internal systems,

clustered pair to help us to balance the load across our web server
farm, and to allow maintenance of individual web servers without
affecting the service. The solid state design, use of Open Source
software and excellent value offered were major factors in deciding to
go for this solution.

"Our site went from <2mb/sec to over 60mb/sec during the course
of one week and the load-balancers never appeared under duress in any
way… they slept through it.
I was able to pre-configure the entire environment using vmware server
to be sure that what I wanted to do would work effectively. The units
are cost effective enough for us to consider deploying them in high
numbers without being forced us to reduce the number of production
servers we deploy to each site."

“The
Enterprise Clustered Pairs are the cornerstone of our business
infrastructure. We provide Mobile Streaming Services to thousands of
customers around the world, and Loadbalancer.org products ensure that
we provide the highest level of customer service 24 hours a day, 365
days a year. They have ensured 100% uptime for our service, even when
we have experience large scale server failures.
Our technical team found
that the Enterprise Clustered Pairs were incredibly easy to install and
configure, but the most important feature of the Clustered Pairs is
that they have continued to do their job invisibly for over a year
without anybody going near them.”

"Eurogamer have been very
happy with loadbalancers from Loadbalancer.org, particularly due to
their speed and stability. We have had no down-time from
our device in over 2 years and they have handled significant traffic (
>15,000,000 page impressions/month) without a hiccup. The appliance is
significantly better value than comparable hardware load-balancers from
other corporations. It is also a blessed relief to be free of the
restrictive licensing and support practices that seem to go hand in hand
with hardware network appliances from other companies. We would
strongly recommend the Loadbalancer.org devices to any companies who
plan to handle high volume web traffic."
