The Citrix ADC product line optimizes delivery of applications over the internet and private networks, combining application-level security, optimization, and traffic management into a single, integrated appliance. You can install a Citrix ADC appliance in your server room and route all connections to your managed servers through it. The Citrix ADC features that you enable and the policies you set are then applied to incoming and outgoing traffic.

A Citrix ADC appliance can be integrated into any network as a complement to existing load balancers, servers, caches, and firewalls. It requires no additional client or server side software, and can be configured using the Citrix ADC web-based GUI and CLI configuration utilities.
