We use Fortinet FortiADC for controlling applications by Microsoft and Google. We use the solution to block content that must be blocked and allow content that can be allowed.
We use FortiADC for link load balancing. FortiGate has this feature, but some customers aren't using Fortinet firewalls. In this case, the customer had three Internet links for downloading huge satellite images that are more than 70 GB. This company collects the images so their software can analyze which crops are at risk. They download the images between the hours of noon and midnight, and their customers access the website early in the morning around 7 a.m. They need to have the images downloaded and analyzed by the time their customers wake up, but the download server only allows 10 connections per IP address. We set up three links to achieve 30 connections to that IP server, and FortiADC balances the load between those links.

It's used for load-balancing traffic and DNS traffic as well. We use FortiADC as the global traffic manager and DNS solution and also as a classic load application delivery controller. We use it to load balance between applications.
We load segregated data from the web application firewalls and have an alternative load balancer for both our internal and external applications. There are some extensive rewrites that we need. This load is used across our geographically dispersed locations, and data centers, that are actually facilitating both regions.
We use Fortinet FortiADC for disaster recovery, server load balancing, and global level server load balancing. The GSLB is on the internet. I can do GSLB, global server load balancing, and disaster recovery for server load balancing with web features. We can use the FortiADC as a caching server for user experience, as well as a variety of other things. It is similar to half of the web. it is 80 percent of the web.

We mainly use FortiADC for load balancing the application traffic for our customers. The aim is for the traffic to be equally balanced between servers, whether there are two, 10 or 20 servers. There are different load balancing algorithms that we have on the FortiADC and based on that we configure and we load balance the traffic. We have a static website, so we can use FortiWeb instead of the connection coming from the client each time. FortiADC gets the request from the cache Instead of it being sent to the server. If we have different ISP links, then we do our link load balancing using FortiADC. I'm a senior cyber security engineer and we are distributors of FortiADC.

We are an academic institution and our primary use of FortiADC is for student registrations. In the month that I have been using this solution, it seems to be working fine. It is a trial version and I am using it as a virtual appliance, rather than a physical one.
