Citrix NetScaler is built on Intel Xeon platforms and provides state-of-the-art web application acceleration, numerous network optimizations and robust application security in a single, tightly integrated appliance. By leveraging Intel Xeon processors, NetScaler ensures that networks and bandwidth are fully optimized and provide the best TCO, availability, and performance in the industry—improving performance up to 15 times.
Leveraging the power of Intel Xeon processor technology, and Citrix NetScaler version with Citrix nCore technology, NetScaler MPX appliances offer the ideal blend of scalability, functionality and performance. In contrast to other application networking vendors that rely upon proprietary hardware that limits their ability to quickly adapt, the Citrix approach allows for rapid time to market and flexible feature additions and fully leverages the latest Intel CPU advancements as they are released. By pairing NetScaler with Intel Xeon processor technology, Citrix provides another simple, yet robust, solution that drives the elasticity of the cloud into the datacenter.
NetScaler SDX incorporates SR-IOV (single root I/O virtualization) capabilities from Intel to provide fast, multi-tenant, multi-service appliance capable of running at native wire speeds and sustain up to 50 Gbps of throughput. By leveraging the next generation of SR-IOV from Intel, the NetScaler SDX appliance breaks through performance bottlenecks.
