What is an ADC? Analyst Definition/View

ADCs provide functions that optimize enterprise application environments. The market evolved

from the load-balancing systems that were specifically developed to ensure the availability and

scalability of websites. Enterprises use ADCs to optimize reliability, end-user performance, data

center resource use and security for a variety of enterprise applications.

1. Flexibility to support new virtualized network topologies

2. Align Application Delivery Controllers (ADCs) with data center moving

parts changes

3. Automation Ability to provision ADCs independently and with

orchestration ecosystems

4. Ensure complete ADC privacy and segregation both physical and virtual

appliances

5. Accommodate applications with different SLA, performance

predictability and resilience needs

6. Easy Management of ADCs

Application Delivery Controllers (ADCs) are transformed into virtual

ADC instances

(vADCs)

Each vADC can run on top of a specialized and general purpose

computing resources

Each vADC provides a consistent set of basic and advancedapplication delivery features and services, regardless of the

computing resources it utilizes:

- Load Balancing (Local & Global Server Load Balancing)

- Application Optimization

- Security/Additional Services

Virtual ADC Instances (vADC)
