Overview
Pulse Secure® Services Director offers an alternative way to automate the management, licensing, and metering of virtual traffic managers in hybrid deployments. Visualize traffic flows and gain a deeper understanding of your application transactions. The Pulse Secure Services Director must be provisioned with a Bandwidth Pack, providing a pool of deployable bandwidth. Each Base Bandwidth Pack adds to this pool, and each deployed instance reserves a portion of it for its own exclusive use. Each bandwidth pack must be associated with a specific Services Director license and can be used in a cluster of Services Directors. You can increase the available capacity using additional Bandwidth Packs. Pulse Secure offers you flexibility, there is no requirement to purchase the same capacity of add-on bandwidth packs as base packs, and you can assign capacity and capabilities only to those Traffic Manager instances that need it. Bandwidth Packs are available in a range of capacities and feature combinations (Advanced and Enterprise) covering all Pulse Traffic Manager and Pulse Web Application Firewall functionality. Please speak with your Pulse Secure Representative or Partner for more product and pricing information. Perpetual and Term Licensing models for Bandwidth Packs are supported.
Highlights
- Reduced Costs: Why pay for capacity you don't need or use? Pulse Services Director lets you take control of your costs with a usage-based business model.
- Enterprise Management: Centralized backup/restore, and intuitive graphical analytics to visualize end-to-end traffic flows through applications and clusters.
- Rapid Deployment: Roll out new application delivery services ten times faster than traditional solutions, by integrating with a powerful REST-based API.
