The "push" from the Covid-19 pandemic has changed consumer behavior more and more, VPBank - one of the four banks with the highest brand value in Vietnam and top 250 most valuable bank globally - has continuously launched strongly digitized products and services to help customers contactlessly access and still able to use financial services at home easily.
We had an interview with Mr. Tran Minh Quoc - Director of the Infrastructure Operations Center from VPBank, to learn about this model.
Citrix ADC (Citrix NetScaler) is one of the leading solutions in application acceleration to help businesses, ensure applications are always available for users to have the best experience.
It is a comprehensive solution that makes web applications run better by ensuring application responsiveness through advanced application management from layer 4 to layer 7; upgrade the load balancer for the database; and increase security with an application firewall solution.
o Split the connection directions and optimize the distribution of data streams.
o Ability to support multiple load balancing algorithms, content-switching, and health-checking algorithms for all the back-end servers, keep the system in the highest availability state for any connection.
Allows to accelerate application performance from 5-20 times with features: AppCompress, AppCache, Advanced TCP Optimization, TCP Multiplexing, TCP Buffering.
o Built-in hardware-accelerated SSL to offload the incremental processes of establishing SSL connection and encryption from the web server
o Allows to reduce CPU load, freeing up server resources to serve other tasks
o Allows setting the operating mode with FIPS standards HSM integration providing generation and storage codes.
Protect web applications from application layer attacks such as SQL injection, CSS injection, forceful browsing, cookie poisoning, loss and leakage of customer data, and denial of service (DoS) attacks.
o Reduce deployment costs by reducing the number of servers and optimizing bandwidth usage.
o Merge multiple features in one solution
o Provide centralized administration: system configuration, event management, performance management and SSL certificate administration.
See what you can achieve with Citrix ADC
- Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops is the best desktop and application virtualization solution today that enables IT teams to centrally manage workstations, virtual machines, applications, licensing, security for access from anywhere on any device.
- CVAD makes it possible for users to run applications and workstations independent of the operating system of any device regardless of time, location and connection. Administrators can easily manage the network system and the access of all devices that are accessed from many different places in data centers.
o Central infrastructure can be expanded and replaced according to demand, helping to optimize initial investment costs
o Optimizing the performance of the whole system by taking advantage of virtualization and cloud computing platforms, sharing resources based on the allocation mechanism when needed, taking advantage of system resources to reduce waste.
o Virtual machine life cycle is almost endless. Terminal life cycle can be increased by offloading.
o All data is stored centrally
o Centralized management, easy operation and troubleshooting
o Real-time user experience tracking. Provide warnings and forecasts related to errors to recognize and correct
o Centralized log management, recording all tasks and changes on the CVAD system for troubleshooting, auditing, and support for necessary compliance.
o Deploy HA on many different Sites for redundancy and load sharing. Users will connect to the server with the best experience
o Take advantage of virtualized infrastructure features that allow 24/7 availability and zero service downtime when maintenance or upgrades are needed
o Increase system scalability, easily build a new workspace with just a few taps
o Replace or repair hardware without affecting applications and data.
o Users connect remotely to the virtual machine station through 2-factor authentication
o Control policies are established and applied centrally and at the same time on many different target groups
o Private network access is centrally controlled in data center
o Applications running confidential, sensitive documents are marked for protection awareness to help reduce the risk of data leaks.
o A wide range of exclusive technologies to optimize and speed up connections to terminals
o Leverage the processing power and scalability of your servers to boost performance for your graphics-intensive requirements on any device, anytime, anywhere regardless of connection.
