Coyote Point Equalizer E250GX

Equalizer E250GX Overview:

The E250GX is an affordable, reliable layer 4-7 load balancer. Regardless of the application or environment, the E250GX scales your applications while staying within your budget. The E250GX features Coyote Point's legendary reliability and simplicity in an affordable appliance package.

Load Balance More Than the Web:

Web applications aren't the only servers in the data center. With the E250GX, you can load balance Email servers, Portal servers, ERP applications, File Transfer (FTP) servers, Terminal Services and much more. The E250GX provides scalability and high availability for all your applications in one seamless step.

Scaling to Capacity:

The E250GX provides ample capacity to manage mission-critical web application, content or infrastructure servers. The E250GX scales as your business grows to support up to 64 clusters containing 16 servers each. No other product in it's class is as scalable and reliable.

High Availability that's Easy to Manage:

Coyote Point's E250GX simplifies the maintenance and management of both servers and applications. When the inevitable outages occur, IT staff need not be on hand to swap out failed hardware or diagnose application failures. Equalizer's Active Content Verification (ACV) goes beyond the basic ping checks to actually test end-to-end application functionality. When a failure is detected, E250GX seamlessly redirects traffic to the best available server without administrator intervention. Planned or unplanned maintenance is simplified as individual servers can be easily added or removed from clusters without impacting application availability. Finally, no more midnight upgrades, no more weekend maintenance schedules, and no more calls from frustrated users.

Predictable, Reliable and Consistent:

The bottom line for any business is making sure services offered are predictable, reliable and consistent. Offering that quality means having an infrastructure that promises the same. The E250GX delivers on that commitment.
