Take the load off at the hardware level with Managed Network Load Balancing Services. Windstream Hosted Solutions Hi-Touch Load Balancing Services improve server efficiency, boost throughput, and improve response time by handling SSL offloading, caching and compression at the hardware level. All of our solutions use the industry-leading F5 load-balancing platform, backed by 24/7 support from our fully trained, certified staff within our state-of-the-art data centers.

Today's content-rich web applications often require more processing power than a single server can provide. SSL-based transactions, high server load and interface throughput can cause response times to drag and servers to bog down. So while everything may look good on the server side, your network could be slowing to a crawl on the use side-making a mockery of your high-dollar web investment. Managed Load Balancing offers an efficient solution to take the load off your network.
