Legacy load balancers and Application Delivery Controllers (ADC) were not designedfor an era of a software-defined infrastructure, virtualization and cloud-based

applications. Look for the following before buying your next ADC.

AVICentralized controller and policy

repository provides single point ofcontrol and automation.

LEGACYEach hardware (or software)appliance managed individually.90% higher opex.

AVIPure software-only solution

that runs on any x86, VMs or containers.

LEGACYProprietary hardware ADCappliances need planning for power,space and spare inventory.

AVIIntegrated Inline Analytics™

give insights to root-cause & fixapplication performance issues.

LEGACYNeeds additional out-of-band monitoring tools/network plus agents inserted within applications.

AVISecurity config. analyzer and

anomaly detection auto-mitigate DDoS/HTTP/SSL vulnerabilities.

LEGACYAlerts from individual ADCs manually analyzed. Security misconfigurations, outdated ciphers not flagged.

AVIEach customer/LOB/developergets dedicated ADCs with data

& control plane isolation

LEGACYMultiple tenants share samehardware/software device.Upgrades disrupt all app owners.

LEGACYNeed to overprovision scale/capacity upfront based on projecte“peak” scenario.
