Distributed Cloud Services

 

The platform for today’s application-driven enterprise

Organisations are struggling to manage interoperability in today’s highly distributed, hybrid multi-region, multi-cloud and SaaS environments. These architectures are technically complex to integrate, creating more latency and security risks, along with performance, availability, and resiliency challenges. The knock-on effect is longer application deployment lead times, stretched and often siloed IT resources, and an inability to truly realise the scalability and economics of the cloud. IT teams today are realising that it’s no longer humanly possible to manage these modern application environments effectively. That’s why they’re turning to F5.

Top 5 Signs That Your Customers Need F5 Distributed Cloud Services

Their application portfolio is rapidly expanding and includes a mix of legacy and modern, container-based services that are deployed on-premises, in the cloud or at the edge.

Ensuring optimum application and network performance is becoming increasingly difficult for them due to fragmented teams and tooling for distributed environments.

Enforcing consistent application security policies for every application, regardless of whether they’re deployed on-premises or across different clouds, is one of the challenges they’re still trying to solve.

They’re investing heavily in building new applications and services that rely on APIs to enrich how their customers do business with them.

They’ve been tasked with building seamless network connectivity between multiple cloud providers and their data centre that is inherently secure and application aware.
