Kemp LoadMaster, a balanced approach.

The Kemp LoadMaster is by our enterprise as our Load Balancer/Application Delivery Controller solution. We use it extensively to both manage application load and to obscure the back end devices. We initially used it to load balance simple websites and eventually started using some of the more advanced features to take into account environment performance and health in the delivery logic. Today we use it to deliver all kinds of applications: websites, SharePoint sites, DNS, LDAP, skype, SMTP, and various home grown applications. The Kemps solve our needs for load balancing, reverse proxy, and give us a wide variety of options for health checks in determining which servers are valid targets at the time.
