Case Study: Unified Government of Wyandotte County and Kansas City achieves faster, smoother SharePoint performance with KEMP Technologies' LM-4000 and Professional Services

Unified Government of Kansas City uses Kemp's Professional Services team to deploy SharePoint Load Balancing for smoother UX

The Unified Government of Wyandotte County and Kansas City was experiencing slower Microsoft SharePoint performance for roughly 1,400 users and lacked in‑house expertise with load‑balancing technology. To improve responsiveness and ensure a best‑practice installation with full skills handover, they engaged KEMP Technologies and selected the LM-4000 hardware load balancer along with KEMP Professional Services for configuration and training.

KEMP Technologies deployed a pair of LM-4000 appliances and provided fixed‑fee Professional Services to design, configure and transfer knowledge—leveraging LoadMaster features like data compression and content caching to reduce server requests and bandwidth. The engagement delivered a smoother SharePoint user experience with improved response times, easier administration for junior staff, reduced bandwidth utilization, and the platform capacity (8 Gbps L7 throughput and 2,500 SSL TPS) to support future growth, prompting the customer to re‑engage KEMP for additional site collection deployments.
