F5

People rely on business applications that are delivered by networks. These applications run everything from e-mail to Web pages to customer orders. For a business to succeed, applications need to work. They need to be secure, they need to be fast, and they need to always be available.

But as businesses try to do more with their applications, complexity increases -- often to the point that networks and applications stop working.

F5 is the global leader in application delivery networking, enabling customers to increase business efficiency by leveraging the power ofvirtualization throughout the enterprise.

F5 solutions optimize network, server, and storage environments ensuring the highest levels of performance, security, and availability at the lowest possible cost.

In addition, F5 facilitates IT growth and agility by eliminating physical constraints and automating routine processes.

BIG-IP (Application Delivery Controller)

Load balancer, High availability, Traffic management, Application delivery, HA, ADN

One device. Complete control.Applications running across networks can cause a wide variety of problems. Whatever the problem, though, the BIG-IP Product Family can handle it.

BIG-IP is the only device in the industry that can do everything. It delivers high availability, improved performance, application security, and access control, all in one unit.

A single BIG-IP device can do the work of a dozen single-purpose products. More importantly, it can do that work in an efficient, cohesive manner that is easier to manage and adapt as business and technology needs change.

The BIG-IP Product Family is also extraordinarily flexible and configurable. You choose which functions you want by selecting various BIG-IP product modules and BIG-IP feature modules. Depending on which modules and how much traffic capacity you need, you can choose from various BIG-IP hardware platforms.

FirePass (SSL VPN)

VPN, SSL, Remote access

Simplify and Secure Access for Remote WorkersProviding application access to mobile workers can be challenging. Remote workers want to connect from everywhere: homes, airports, hotel rooms, coffee shops, and vehicles. They don't want to go through a difficult process to connect -- but their IT departments don't want infected laptops and mobile devices logged directly into the corporate network.The FirePass SSL VPN provides both security and ease of use. It grants access to corporate applications using a technology that everyone understands: a Web browser. Users can have secure access from anywhere they have an Internet connection, while FirePass ensures that connected computers are fully patched and protected

ARX Series (File Virtualization)

Virtualization, NAS, File

Simplify your storage and lower your costsMost file storage environments are a complex collection of storage platforms, file systems and operation systems that result in isolated islands of storage. Frequent outages occur when data is moved or new storage is provisioned, low aggregate utilization rates are common, and management costs are rising as fast as capacity demands.F5 ARX intelligent file virtualization decouples file access from physical file location to simplify and automate the way file data is accessed, moved and managed. These high-performance, enterprise-class devices provide a powerful suite of storage management policies that eliminate the business and applications disruptions associated with data migration, storage tiering, data replication, and storage load balancing

Data Manager (File Virtualization)

Virrtualization, Storage management, Storage

Easily deploy, manage, and optimize virtualized storage environments. As the volume of file data increases rapidly, so does the cost and effort of managing that data. Storage infrastructures are complex and inflexible, making it more difficult than ever for IT teams to access, move and manage data without disrupting users or business operations. For relief, many organizations are turning to file virtualization solutions.F5 Data Manager enables you to reap the full benefits of this technology by simplifying deployment of file virtualization solutions, improving ongoing management and creating a more efficient and cost-effective storage environment. With Data Manager you can quickly identify areas within your file storage resources that could be improved by file virtualization and monitor multiple resources with a centralized, extensible storage management platform

Enterprise Manager (F5 Device Management)

Application delivery, ADN

Reduce the cost of managing your application delivery infrastructureAs your application delivery infrastructure expands to meet the demands of your business, deploying and managing multiple devices can add complexity and cost that reduce the efficiency of your deployments.Enterprise Manager is a centralized management appliance for F5 BIG-IP devices that gives you a consolidated, real-time view of your entire F5 application delivery infrastructure, plus the tools you need to quickly optimize performance and scale your infrastructure to meet business needs.

WANJet (WAN Optimization)

Acceleration, Application delivery

Connect Remote Offices at Local SpeedsMost file-sharing technologies were designed for use in a single location, over a wired local area network (LAN). They run much slower over wide area networks (WANs), such as the Internet.WANJet is a powerful, appliance-based solution that delivers fast, steady, predictable performance for all users on a WAN. WANJet overcomes the limitations of wide area networks, helping with file transfers and data replication between data centers and branch offices. By installing a WANJet at each end of a connection, file transfers take place at nearly the speed of a wired local area network. Application performance is also comparable to what users would experience on a hard-wired LAN.
