This paper examines the value of using integrated application delivery devices to meet the challenges of delivering hundreds of dynamic business-critical applications while containing costs and simplifying infrastructure. In particular, it describes the Cisco solution. The Cisco ACE Application Control Engine Module, which provides the highest levels of performance and scalability, secure virtualization, and role-based administration capabilities, is natively integrated with the Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series Switches and Cisco 7600 Series Routers. The paper describes some of the solution's main integration features from a technical standpoint and its benefits in comparison to those of traditional appliances: cabling, power, and cooling savings; greater availability; higher performance; and enhanced security.
