Load Balancing
Load Balancing squeezes more performance from configurations of two or more web servers; especially those at risk of traffic spikes; large e-commerce websites, social media networks and ad serving platforms.
Indigo employs F5 Big IP load traffic managers delivering high availability, improved performance, application security and access control. This technology disperses traffic evenly across your servers to prevent one from becoming overloaded to the point of failure. If one server fails, traffic is automatically and instantaneously diverted to the remaining servers.
