Now that you’re delivering apps across your environment — many times with traditional IT resources — ensure successful delivery of those apps with these four crucial components. Deploy application delivery services such as DDoS protection, WAF, DNS, TCP optimization, and global server load balancing to keep applications secure, fast, and always available. Service delivery platform — leverage the right mix of hardware devices, software, lightweight proxies, or a cloud-based application service platform for your hybrid environment. Save time, ensure consistent deployments, and reduce the operational risk of manual deployments by codifying standard configuration elements for a particular service. Cut administration overhead by providing tools to manage, monitor, and upgrade Application Delivery Controllers (ADCs). You’ve always delivered applications. Most of them changed infrequently and deployed from your on-premises data centers.
Application Delivery
If organizations fail to meet these expectations, it has never been easier for customers to find alternatives. F5 Networks’ expertise in intelligent traffic management serves as the foundation for F5 Networks application availability and delivery solutions. Load balancing has evolved into something much greater. That something is application delivery, which includes traditional load balancing for delivering any application, plus security, performance, and management services. These services help you follow through on the promise of your applications. Apps have been F5 Networks focus for 20 years. As leaders in the application services, F5 Networks expertise in helping power fast, available, and secure apps forms the foundation for our entire catalog of solutions. You don’t have to choose between security and stability, and providing the agility DevOps requires to support change. It’s possible to bridge both environments with an architecture that provides these benefits for every single one of your applications.
Network Security
Complete protection for users, apps and data. The complete portfolio of F5 Networks Software-Defined Networking technologies and solutions is designed to help you improve security, reduce vulnerabilities, and ensure ongoing performance of your critical business applications. Protect your applications — the door to your data and your business. Applications power businesses of all sizes, from startups to the Fortune 500. Your business is driven by them, your customers connect with you through them, and your employees can’t do their jobs without them. But, as critical as they are, applications also expose your business to threats. Applications and their data are a focal point for today’s attacks. Today, there are over 1 billion web apps. In 2020, that could easily be 5 billion. All those apps could be targets for attacks and securing applications is fraught with complexity. With the pervasiveness of Internet encryption (SSL/TLS), mobile devices, and the growth of the Internet of Things (IoT), risks are only increasing.
