"Managing latency-sensitive voice and video network traffic within large-scale deployments of real-time communications applications is a challenge that is not always effectively addressed by existing web-centric Application Delivery Controllers (ADCs)," said Ronald Gruia, Director for Emerging Telecom at Frost & Sullivan.  "Dialogic PowerApp LB stands out from existing ADCs by tackling the unique needs of real-time communications with application-aware traffic management features, resilience and contextual routing."

"As virtualized and cloud-based real-time communications applications coninue to gain market acceptance, scaling becomes an increasing priority," said Jim Machi, Senior VP Product Management and Marketing at Dialogic. "As shown in a production deployment at one of our European tier 1 service provider customers, our PowerApp LB load balancer addresses the unique low-latency and resilience requirements of real-time communications while enabling application scaling."

Dialogic PowerApp LB is a software-based high-performance, and fully optimized network traffic load-balancer, uniquely designed to meet challenges for today's demanding Real-Time Communication infrastructure in both carrier and enterprise applications. With PowerApp LB, application developers, service providers and enterprises are able to dynamically scale, distribute and manage traffic associated with a diverse set of real-time and non-real-time applications across disparate applications and data centers.  Designed for COTS servers, virtualized or NFV deployments, the software-based PowerApp LB can be deployed in cloud or on-premise implementations, supporting geographic diversity and resilience.

When deployed with the Dialogic® PowerMedia™ XMS Media Server (MRF) and Media Resource Broker (MRB) products, PowerApp LB enhances scalability and resilience across multiple application implementations.
