Through the portal, Zeus will join a network of approved suppliers and partners that provide IXEurope customers with a wide range of IT and networking systems that help drive performance in data center environments. Availability of ZXTM through the IXExchange portal represents an expansion of Zeus' channel strategy, which also includes OEM and licensing agreements, allowing it to tap into new markets and geographies.

The IXExchange portal was created to act as a reference library of leading services and products for its customers, which include systems integrators and IT consultants, hosting and managed service providers and network service providers. ZXTM will deliver these organizations a comprehensive traffic management, network security and application optimization solution to ensure swift and seamless interaction between Web-enabled application services.

"As the traffic and performance demands on such applications grow, our customers are looking to us to recommend solutions to improve the reliability, availability, scalability and security of their IT systems. As the only pure software traffic management solution on the market, ZXTM provides the ideal balance of performance and flexibility that our customers need within an outsourced data center environment."
