Simplify
the chaos of your multi-cloud enterprise
Load balancing isn’t just about managing traffic anymore. As your
infrastructure expands to include applications in public, private, and
hybrid clouds, traffic management has evolved from a technology function
to a business function that delivers value to the organization as a whole.
Here are five ways to help unravel your cloud complexity.

Visibility and Analytics
Application visibility and analytics help ensure that applications remain
secure, available and responsive, delivering productivity for employees
and satisfying digital experiences for customers.
Integrated Security
Security that is integrated into the load balancing solution provides the
best defense. Bolt-on security products tend to be complex and hard to
configure, particularly with regard to application security. Configuration
and management of security features and the ability to adjust policies at
a granular level need be straightforward and easy.
Intelligent Automation
The need for automation and integration extends beyond the DevOps
team. An advanced load balancing solution with strong integration
capabilities gives businesses the flexibility to respond to changes without
having to purchase new assets and re-set the ROI clock. New products and
services can go to market faster when integration makes the infrastructure
easy to modify.
Centralized Management
The typical organization has technology everywhere and managing all
that traffic can be a challenge. An advanced load balancing solution that
provides centralized management will prevent conflicting policies. It will
also ensure visibility of the application stack in both public and private
clouds, as well as enable multiple regions to accommodate high availability,
regulatory requirements, or other needs.
Containerized Environment
The move to multi-cloud, with its requirement for application portability, is
a major factor driving companies toward the use of containers. The mandate
to improve cost efficiencies across staffing, infrastructure and software
resources is seen as the top driver for container adoption. The top benefits
of containers include; flexibility and portability of applications, improved
scalability, better compute resource efficiency and operational simplicity.
