Chapter 5. Optimizing NetScaler Traffic
The purpose of NetScaler is to act as a logistics department. It has to serve content to many different endpoints using many different protocols across different types of media, and it can either be a physical device or on top of a hypervisor within a private cloud infrastructure. Since there are many factors that play in here, there is room for tuning and improvement. Some of the topics we will cover in this chapter are:
- Tuning for virtual environments
- Tuning TCP traffic
- Tuning SSL traffic
- HTTP/2 and SPDY
- Other network capabilities
