LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 11, 1999--Network Appliance, Inc. (NASDAQ: NTAP - news), the leading provider of dedicated cache appliances for building the Internet's infrastructure, and RADWARE, known for its award-winning load balancing product line, today announced interoperability of the Network Appliance(TM) NetCache(TM) appliances and RADWARE's Web Server Director(TM) (WSD) and Cache Server Director(TM) (CSD). This collaboration will provide ISP and enterprise customers with transparent load balancing/caching solutions designed to maximize Internet/Intranet performance while significantly reducing WAN costs.
''RADWARE's CSD and the NetCache appliance give customers a caching solution that provides the ultimate in performance and manageability,'' said Doron Meirom, President of RADWARE.

According to Zerowait, a systems integrator that represents both RADWARE and Network Appliance, the two technologies together create this new, exciting solution for accelerating content delivery over the Internet or WAN. As Michael Linett, Zerowait President, puts it, ''Both ISPs and enterprises need to get content to users quickly and reliably. Our solution works for both because we use the best of both technologies: NetCache appliances serve content exceptionally fast, and RADWARE's load balancing solution makes sure the content delivery is fault tolerant, with total failover and uptime secured.''......
