Brinkster Delivers 24/7 Service Availability for 50,000 Customers with Radware’s Alteon NG Load Balancer

Brinkster is a custom cloud infrastructure and hosting provider serving 50,000 customers in over 175 countries since 1999, offering virtualization, storage, DDoS mitigation and other managed services. As an IaaS provider, Brinkster needed a robust load‑balancing capability for web, cloud and mobile applications to ensure 24/7 availability, handle peak loads and prevent downtime for both its own services and tenant-deployed stacks.

Radware’s Alteon NG delivered multi‑site global server load balancing, health monitoring, traffic redirection, link high‑availability and full redundancy, plus per‑tenant virtual appliances and OpenStack integration. The solution provided real‑time fault detection and bypass, SSL termination to reduce server load, guaranteed ADC capacity for tenants, faster onboarding and sustained 24/7 service availability, protecting Brinkster’s reputation, performance and profitability.
