HydraWeb is the company that made those things. We got a couple of them
right before HydraWeb went out of business... what a nightmare. They were
the worst pieces of hardware I've ever had the displeasure of dealing
with. Not only that, but people we were trying to contact kept getting
laid off. The only reason we got our money back is because one of my
coworkers finagled the cellphone number of the VP out of someone.
If you want a good loadbalancing appliance, look at F5's BigIP product.
That's what most of the big ISPs use. It costs about the same as the
Hydras did, but it actually *works*.
I would recommend to Hugh/Mike/etc that you drop reference to Hydra since
they don't seem to exist anymore.
