They manage dedicated firewalls for us, but as far as load balancers we use the cloud. I wasn’t sure cloud load balancing would be right, for example, but they showed us the numbers. December 2010 (119). November 2010 (121). October 2010 (99). September 2010 (152). August 2010 (139).

A specific angle I want to address here is that of infrastructure automation ; that is, the dynamic manipulation of physical resources (virtualized or not) such as I/O, networking, load balancing, and storage connections - Sometimes referred to as "Infrastructure 2.0". a Fabric), and network switches, load balancers, etc.
