Hardware SSL Implementations
-
Hi, Have any of you guys had any experience with hardware SSL. I need to research this. Specifically the performance over non-encrpyted standard IIS. If I turned SSL on in IIS (software!) it will probably kill performance of the web application. Is this not present with the SSL solution? can it encrypt as fast as it receives the data? Any thoughts on load-balancing with SSL? I understand for SSL to work you need an SSL Session (i.e encrpytion keys being used specific to the session) So transfering from server to server in a server farm probably will not work. Unless the Hardware solution registers the session against a particular server in the farm?
