Traffix Announces Traffix Diameter Load Balancer Version 3.0

LONDON, April 6, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- Traffix Systems, the NGN and Diameter control plane expert, announced today the general availability (GA) of Traffix Diameter Load Balancer version 3.0. The new version enables telecom operators to optimize data traffic and cut costs.

The new version announced today presents important new capabilities enabling easy and cost effective data traffic growth in telecom networks:

    - Support of additional protocols - Traffix Diameter Load Balancer
      supports additional control plane protocols. The following protocols
      are now supported:

    - LDAP

    - RADIUS

    - JMS

    - Web-Services

    - XML-RPC

    - Contextual Load Balancing enabling Dedicated Domain Servers -Traffix
      Diameter Load Balancer can apply load balancing rules based on message
      content. As such, different types of transactions based on AVP content,
      including user defined AVPs, can be directed to different Diameter
      servers, enabling Dedicated Server Domain concept. This new concept
      opens up new opportunities for network optimization by increasing the
      control over the types of sessions which are managed by each client.

    - Advanced Session State Maintenance - The state of each control plane
      session running through any load balancer is kept in a shared memory in
      a way that session control is load balancer independent, thus multi
      instance control of the session is maintained and sessions can be
      seamlessly transferred from one load balancer to another with no
      information loss. This feature increases the overall system resilience
      and agility.

Lior Zadicareo, Traffix VP marketing and Business Development, said: "Traffix Diameter Load Balancer is set apart from other load balancers. It is intimately familiar with the context of the transaction, thus enables the telecom operator distribute traffic across the network based on business needs, and therefore enables maximum network utilization and cost efficiency".
