Crescendo Networks is an Israeli company dealing in the Application Front End Acceleration market. The company develops a dedicated hardware based appliance which aims to improve web server tiers utilization by offloading them from different tasks e.g.: TCP termination and multiplexing, SSL offload, Content Compression and Server Load Balancing.
Crescendo manufactures and sells application acceleration applicances designed to optimize and accelerate application content delivery, improve the quality of the end user experience and deliver immediate ROI on existing data center infrastructure. Crescendo's Maestro Applicaiton Front End (AFE) is based upon purpose built hardware with dedicated cpu and memory resources for each AFE function. Maestro logically front ends server farms (clusters) and intelligently optimizes and accelerates content delivery from application resources to the end user. Maestro provides TCP termination and acceleration, SSL acceleration, traffic shaping, compression and load balancing.
Application Layer Processing - a module available on the Maestro 55xx product accelerates all application tiers within the data center by queing user requests and intelligently scheduling those requests to the most available application resources within the data center.
Crescendo is also known for running one of the best support organizations in the Application Front End market[1]. The strong support structure, coupled with the relative simplicity in the setup and configuration of its appliances, has helped solidify Crescendo's place as one of the top AFE vendors operating today.
