Case Study: Layered Tech achieves secure self-service cloud and cost savings with Citrix NetScaler VPX

Enablement of self-service, secure cloud computing with NetScaler

Layered Tech, a secure cloud and managed services provider for regulated mid‑market and enterprise customers, needed a way to offer self‑service public cloud while guaranteeing compliance (PCI, HIPAA) and improving security, scalability and uptime. The company also wanted to consolidate three different load‑balancing solutions into a single vendor offering both virtual and physical appliances to reduce cost and simplify support.

Layered Tech deployed Citrix NetScaler VPX (with existing MPX hardware) to provide virtualized L7 load balancing, SSL VPN, WAF, DDoS mitigation and global load balancing with pay‑as‑you‑grow scaling. The result was faster, higher‑quality service—reducing delivery from days to minutes—simplified support and vendor management, easier customer migrations to cloud environments, and measurable cost and productivity gains.
