Citrix NetScaler 1000V powered by Citrix

Delivered by Cisco

Datacenters are undergoing a fundamental transformation driven by cloud, mobility and virtualization. Successfully managing application workloads in these modern datacenters requires a flexible, scalable, application-aware network. Citrix and Cisco announce the Citrix NetScaler 1000V, a best-in-class application delivery controller that redefines L4-L7 services.

Expanding virtual network infrastructure portfolio

Building on Cisco strength in Unified Fabric and Unified Compute, and Citrix strength in intelligent, application delivery, the new architecture runs on Nexus Virtual Service Platform to provide a virtualized network platform that delivers scalability, elastic instantiation, and multi-tenant operation, all with a common approach to service provisioning and management. This core platform of Cisco Unified Fabric also integrates WAN optimization, security, application delivery, and network monitoring into a seamless converged infrastructure.

Accelerating transformation to new network service delivery models for mobile, cloud, and virtualization

Bringing Citrix and Cisco key technologies together into an integrated solution helps enterprise and service provider customers deliver true cloud service automation with deep network and application-level intelligence, speed service deployment and simplify networking services.
