Web2.0 applications are business critical, generating a major portion or all the revenues of several companies. This talk will focus on web application delivery systems that can yield lightning fast response times, protect against attacks and sudden traffic spikes, and optimize the infrastructure to support a rapidly growing user base without a corresponding explosive growth of servers and bandwidth.

These web application delivery systems combine massive scalability and sophisticated functionality with application intelligence to provide the best of both worlds in terms of functionality / security and performance. While it has been argued that security is traded off against performance, in this talk you will learn how the same system can strengthen availability and security without losing legitimate user transactions, and at the same time boost top line with accelerated performance and improve the bottom line by scaling and optimizing server and network capacities.

You will also hear from a customer who has accrued real world benefits from the use of a web application delivery system, including how the system improved their service and benefited their business.
