Release Notes
The changes in this release focus on two major features: Global server load balancing (GSLB) and the Advanced Web Application Firewall.
You can now run ALOHA as a DNS server and enable GSLB to load balance traffic across multiple datacenters. DNS records will direct clients to the datacenter closest to them or to the one that is reporting as healthy.
The Advanced WAF is an alternative to the ModSecurity WAF and provides a stricter set of rules, which requires more tuning to allow valid traffic through, but has a better requests-per-second throughput.
