About Ecessa (formerly Astrocom)

Ecessa's WAN optimization products enable small-to-medium size enterprises to reliably run their network-based applications and distribute traffic among multiple, diverse WAN links, ensuring business continuity by removing bottlenecks and eliminating network downtime associated with ISP failures.  These capabilities improve user access to business-critical applications within datacenters and remote sites, aid in lowering operational costs, and make it easier to provision, maintain, and support business-critical networks and the applications that run over these networks.

The company's core products deliver industry leading price/performance value.  PowerLinkTM and ShieldLink optimize WAN traffic for organizations of all types who wish to improve network and application performance and eliminate downtime for business-critical, time-sensitive applications. PowerLink and ShieldLink bundle multiple WAN lines (T1, T3, xDSL, Cable, ISDN, Wireless, Satellite, etc.), to enable WAN and/or ISP redundancy, automated link failover, link load balancing, site failover/fallback, and VPN redundancy and failover - and for both inbound and outbound traffic of all types.

The solutions from Ecessa also offer quality-of-service (QoS) to prioritize network traffic to ensure the best possible bandwidth is always available to applications, especially during periods of congestion, and uses link load balancing and automatic failover to direct traffic to WAN links with the optimum bandwidth and cost-efficiencies.

Key Benefits

• Effective management and automated fault detection / failover for redundant internet links to prohibit ISP outages from affecting    both worker productivity and client-facing applications and services accessibility

• DNS server capabilities to allow external users/inbound traffic to    connect to dedicated servers and services hosted by the company   across multiple ISP links ("inbound" load balancing and failover)

• QoS traffic shaping capabilities to limit or prioritize outbound traffic types to alleviate unnecessary congestion caused by non-critical browsing, or to ensure mission-critical applications receive the proper allotment of bandwidth for quality and performance

• Load balancing of internet traffic across multiple ISP connections to improve overall performance, alleviate congestion, and make use of affordable ISP options to increase the amount of bandwidth available    to all for inbound and outbound internet traffic

• Site and server failover functionalities to ensure back-up servers and services hosted on the LAN or at a second location are being used in    the event of a primary server or entire location failure
