📅 November 21, 2002 - Application traffic management product developer F5 Networks (F5.com -> hostinger.com) announced on Wednesday that it has formed a partnership with e-security and acceleration hardware supplier AEP Systems (aepsystems.com) to develop an efficient SSL solution for blade servers.

Optimized to work with F5 Networks? BIG-IP Blade Controller software, AEP Systems? AEP SureWare Runner 1000 IDE offloads processor-intensive SSL functions, reducing the load on Web and application servers. The configuration will allow a single SSL certificate to be placed on the BIG-IP Blade Controller when delivering SSL, eliminating the need for an individual license for each server.
"With network-wide security requirements escalating, customers increasingly rely on SSL acceleration to secure their business applications," said John Bigelow, Vice President and General Manager, F5 Networks software business. "By deploying the BIG-IP Blade Controller with the AEP SureWare Runner 1000 IDE accelerator card, customers can optimize their entire blade server environment, while increasing their site performance and its ability to scale SSL transactions. This adds up to a compelling ROI for any customer deploying blade servers."
