Sangfor Load Balancer VS ARRAY NETWORKS ADC

COMPARISON AMONG Sangfor Load Balancer, ARRAY NETWORKS ADC AND RELIANOID LOAD BALANCER

What is Sangfor Load Balancer

The Sangfor Load Balancer, part of the Sangfor Application Delivery (AD) suite, is a powerful tool designed to enhance the efficiency of application delivery by providing robust availability, scalability, and protection across various network environments. It combines several traffic management functions—such as global server load balancing (GSLB), server-level load balancing, and link load balancing—into a unified platform. This all-in-one approach enables organizations to distribute traffic effectively across multiple servers and locations, improving both uptime and application responsiveness. The Sangfor Load Balancer is also compatible with both IPv4 and IPv6, ensuring smooth integration into current IT ecosystems.

A key differentiator of the Sangfor Load Balancer is its unilateral acceleration feature, which boosts access speed without needing any additional software on the client side. This capability results in faster load times and a more stable user experience. Additionally, the solution comes with intelligent analytics tools that deliver real-time visibility into network and server performance, helping IT teams fine-tune operations based on actionable data. Enhanced by built-in security functionalities like DDoS mitigation and SSL offloading, the Sangfor Load Balancer not only streamlines traffic distribution but also fortifies application security—making it an ideal choice for organizations prioritizing performance and protection in their digital infrastructure.

What is Array Networks APV Series

The Array Networks APV Series is a high-performance Application Delivery Controller (ADC) family available as physical, virtual, and cloud appliances that accelerate, secure and ensure availability of applications across data center and cloud environments. At its core, APV provides Layer-4 to Layer-7 load balancing and intelligent traffic management to keep applications fast and available by directing user requests according to dynamic and policy-based decisions. Array’s APV appliances include SSL/TLS acceleration and interception, connection multiplexing, caching and compression, traffic shaping, DDoS protections, Global Server Load Balancing (GSLB), and an integrated Web Application Firewall (WAF).
Array Networks

Built on Array’s SpeedCore® 64-bit architecture and a kernel-level L7 policy engine, APV delivers efficient processing and low-latency traffic handling suitable for enterprises, service providers and public sector deployments. APV also provides automation and orchestration through REST/XML-RPC and integrations with cloud/virtual platforms, making it flexible for modern CI/CD and cloud-native workflows.

WHAT IS RELIANOID

RELIANOID as alternative to Sangfor Load Balancer and Array Networks ADC across key ADC capabilities

RELIANOID bridges the gap between the regional focus and limited ecosystem of Sangfor ADC and the restricted scalability of Array Networks ADC. While Array provides affordable, practical ADC capabilities and Sangfor delivers basic load balancing with a stronger presence in specific markets but fewer global integrations, RELIANOID combines high-performance load balancing, advanced security, and simplified operations in a lightweight, cost-efficient, and platform-agnostic solution. It supports modern protocols like HTTP/2, features hot-reload for zero-downtime updates, and integrates seamlessly with containerized, cloud, and hybrid infrastructures. For organizations needing globally scalable, enterprise-ready ADC features without regional limitations, RELIANOID is the smart choice.
