27 February, 2018 | Announces

The RELIANOID Team is proud to announce the new layer 4 core named nftlb which stands for nftables load balancer, as it’s based on the next generation linux kernel nftables infrastructure.

Thanks to the research and development during the last 2 years in collaboration with the netfilter core team, we’re able to release this new core that gets 10x faster load balancing than the widely use Linux Virtual Server software that is used by other vendors.
