USA 800, the largest employee-owned contact center in the US, experienced double-digit growth over the past five years. This growth necessitated scalable technology solutions to handle the increased demand, including expanding its headquarters and adding 150 additional agent workstations. The company specializes in managing inbound calls for various industries, providing services such as customer care, sales, and lead acquisition. With three contact centers handling inbound contacts for over 150 partners, USA 800 relies heavily on its web-based eCRM platform for eCommerce, customer care, and order processing. Forecasting a record 2008 holiday shopping season, USA 800 needed to add high-performance server load balancing functionality to ensure all orders could be processed quickly and on time. Key business drivers for purchasing a new load balancer solution included redundancy and disaster recovery to meet the increased demands during the holiday season.

解决方案

After researching multiple load balancing solutions, USA 800 chose A10 Networks Application Delivery Controllers (ADC) and deployed them near the end of October 2008, just in time for the holiday shopping season. The A10 ADC managed capacity flawlessly, helping USA 800 experience its most successful holiday season ever. The A10 ADC's scalable SMP architecture handles heavy traffic periods with ease, utilizing multiple CPUs without unnecessary overhead. This results in faster application performance, particularly for USA 800's eCRM platform. Additionally, the A10 ADC provides advanced Layer 7 health checks and high availability, ensuring users receive the fastest session and that servers, applications, and databases are operational before connecting to a backend session. The price/performance ratio of the A10 ADC was also a significant factor, delivering exceptional performance at half the price of alternative solutions. With all required features included without additional licensing fees, USA 800 achieved the best cost/benefit equation from the A10 ADC.
