Netscaler is psuedo SaaS model. Pay as you grow. More bandwidth, pay more. #citrixsynergy
by Shawn Bass at 5/13/2010 4:14:07 PM

by Shawn Bass at 5/13/2010 4:15:13 PM
Ahhh ok Netscale will support burst, that gets pretty close to the SaaS model I was thinking. But why make Burst an extra license cost??? #citrixsynergy
