The F5 Application Delivery Controller (ADC) Platform can optimize the speed and reliability of your applications via both network and application layers. Using real-time protocol and traffic management decisions based on application and server conditions, extensive connection management, and TCP and content offloading, which dramatically improves page load times and the user experience.
- SSL certificate management - we take care of all of the SSL requests / renewals / expirations.
- SSL/TLS-offloading - client connections to the F5 can have the highest SSL/TLS security possible, even if your web or application server doesn’t support these setting.
- Sophisticated load balancing - distribute incoming traffic across your infrastructure to increase your application's availability
- Intelligent traffic management decisions - direct traffic based on the requested URL, HTTP header, cookie or other logic
- Full proxy - client connections terminate at the F5, which proxies the request to your infrastructure. This means you only need to allow traffic from the F5 to your servers, reducing your attack surface and risk vulnerability.
- HTTP/2 - support HTTP/2 optimized connections (multiplexing, prioritization, binary, header compression, etc) with fallback to HTTP/1.1.
- No cost
