Why You Should Choose a Software-Based Load Balancer
Features and functionality are meaningless if applications can’t perform.

As a result, the IT world is rapidly moving away from dedicated hardware solutions and toward software and virtualization in all areas.

Why hardware appliances are constantly overprovisioned and how software prevents this
How turning on Layer 7 features with hardware load balancers significantly reduces performance
