Radware (RDWR), a provider of integrated application delivery solutions for business-smart networking, has unveiled its virtual application delivery infrastructure (VADI) strategy, which brings agility and efficiency of virtualisation to application delivery solutions.
The new strategy is an architecture which transforms computing resources, as well as application delivery and virtualisation services into one integrated, agile and scalable ADVI, according to the company.
It is designed to bridge the gap across underlying hardware resources and serve the various application needs in terms of SLA and performance predictability while delivering maximal agility to application delivery services.
IDC Datacenter Networks service vice president Lucinda Borovick said, to date, what’s been missing is a concrete way for data centers to migrate to the new virtual data center construct while ensuring application delivery as a key component can move in lock-step with that migration to ensure resilience, predictability and scale in the physical environment.
"Radware, with their VADI strategy and product release, is meeting those needs and allowing companies to adopt virtual application delivery deployments according to the evolution of their IT needs and user demands," Borovick said.
The VADI includes virtual ADC instances for transforming ADCs into application delivery services, and ADC computing resources for the vADC that are delivered in three form factors according to application and SLA requirements.
It also includes VADI services tailored to application delivery and integrated into virtual data center orchestration systems, and open API and plug-ins enabling full integration into standard orchestration systems and proprietary automation and provisioning systems.
Radware COO Ilan Kinreich said, creating a virtualised application delivery infrastructure allows for the alignment of application delivery services with a company’s new virtual data center architecture – providing each application with an application delivery service matching a business’ SLAs and performance predictability needs.
