Case Study: Intermax achieves high-performance load balancing and peak-traffic management with A10 Networks ADCs

Cloud Hoster Intermax Balances Server Load with A10 ADCs and Manages Peak Traffic with Ease

Intermax, a Dutch hosting and cloud provider for business‑critical web applications in healthcare, government, media and e‑commerce, faced frequent traffic spikes that risked overloading customer servers. The company needed a cost‑effective, easy‑to‑manage way to ensure 24/7 performance, avoid unexpected licensing costs, and scale capacity across four data centers.

Intermax deployed A10 Networks’ Thunder and AX ADCs plus vThunder virtual appliances to load‑balance traffic, offload SSL, cache busy sites and implement custom aFleX queuing for overload scenarios. The solution absorbed peak loads without license surprises, sped proof‑of‑concepts and rollouts, reduced power and rack footprint, and enabled new shared‑load‑balancing services that generated additional revenue.
