Operational Impact
Application failures were eliminated. Previously, the university experienced application failures approximately three times a year. By centralizing and rebuilding the IT infrastructure, these failures have been eliminated. | |
Maintenance windows are no longer needed. CIT no longer needs to take any part of the environment offline for server maintenance. With BIG‑IP LTM, they are now able to switch between servers with ease. | |
Server capacity has been optimized. BIG‑IP LTM has alleviated server capacity issues. High throughput is combined with intelligent load balancing so the workload is distributed evenly across the various servers, eliminating inefficiencies. | |
Quantitative Benefit
Eliminated application failures from approximately three times a year to zero. | |
Optimized server utilization, though exact numbers are not mentioned. | |
