By deploying BIG-IP LTM in front of Guardium appliances, organizations can achieve the following

 

benefits:

 

• Reduced total cost of ownership through easier configuration and management,

   

• Health monitoring of the Guardium S-TAP Collectors to ensure traffic is sent to a Collector that is actually up and available,

   

• Intelligent Load Balancing to distribute incoming connections to the Guardium server with the least connections,

   

• Transparent pass-through of SSL connections to allow either SSL or cleartext connections between the databases and the Collectors,

   

• Granular control the administrators, allowing for maintenance on a particular Guardium Collector, without impacting Database information collection.
