Array APV
Milpitas, California, United States
What it is
Array APV is an application delivery controller for managing application availability, performance, security, and traffic. It balances server traffic across Layers 2, 3, 4, and 7, with health checks, persistence, clustering, and failover. Administrators can configure and combine Layer 7 policies through a WebUI or CLI. SSL/TLS acceleration and offloading, connection multiplexing, caching, and compression support application delivery; certificate and key management are also included. The x850 datasheet describes WebWall protection against DDoS and malformed URL attacks. Listed integrations include OpenStack Load Balancing-as-a-Service, VMware Cloud Orchestrator, and Microsoft System Center standards. Deployment options span physical or virtual appliances, hyper-converged infrastructure, and cloud environments. The vAPV guide names VMware ESXi, Hyper-V, KVM, Citrix XenServer, Nutanix, AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud Platform. Management includes secure CLI, WebUI, SSH, role-based administration, and real-time monitoring. Array describes use across sectors including banking, healthcare, manufacturing, government, education, and service providers. Pricing is on request; licensing options include perpetual or subscription licenses, utility consumption, and MSP/IaaS models.
