Zeus Launches ZXTM Virtual Appliance

November 7, 2006 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Application traffic management software provider Zeus Technology (zeus.com) announced on Tuesday it has launched Zeus Extensible Traffic Manager virtual appliance, a new version of its flagship traffic management technology that operates as a virtual appliance within virtualized data center environments.

ZXTM VA is a virtual appliance that runs on VMware's ESX Server 3 data center infrastructure. It manages incoming network traffic across a cluster of virtual machines, inspecting, routing, rewriting and manipulating each request. Zeus Technology says as virtual machines are deployed, moved and removed, ZXTM VA routes incoming traffic so that it is always delivered to the most available and responsive machines.

Zeus Technology says the goal of this network is to create a union between virtual appliance partners and existing virtual infrastructure customers to provide solutions that are easy to deploy and manage. ZXTM VA has passed VMware's certification program, which guarantees that all featured virtual appliances have been fully configured to operate natively within VMware's ESX Server 3 data center platform.

"In launching the virtual appliance network, VMware has made a bold play to create an ecosystem of solutions that will help organizations deploy and manage a completely virtualized data center environment," says Paul Di Leo, CEO of Zeus Technology. "As the only software-based Layer 7 traffic manager, ZXTM VA is perfectly positioned to provide services in virtualized environments. It aligns perfectly with the strategic adoption of virtualization as customers do not need to purchase dedicated physical appliances to meet their load balancing and traffic management needs."
