Container Application Services with Kubernetes

Radical changes in security have dramatic impact on load balancing. SSL/TLS is changing so rapidly that enterprises are forced to do a forklift upgrade of their hardware load balancers. However, with VMware Advanced Load Balancer by Avi Networks, it’s as simple as a version update.

In this webinar, we catch you up the latest SSL facts.

- SSL termination can be done with only software. And it has better security, scalability, and lower cost. That’s how Facebook and Google do it. Let’s see how.
- RSA and Elliptic-curve cryptography (ECC) have different implications for perfect forward secrecy (PFS), HTTP/2 and TLS 1.3 support. Let’s compare.
- SSL health score allows you to manage expiring certificates, automated certificate renewals, and notification alerts from a centralized control plane.

With the advent of automation, iRules have become an artifact of the past. Especially when the most commonly deployed F5 iRules such as HTTP redirects, content switching, or logging, require custom scripting. It can be a huge pain for an IT team to train staff on convoluted syntax and manual conversions. Avi eliminates most iRules (#iRulesNoMore) – basic or advanced – with native point-and-click functionalities.

Watch this webinar to learn:
- How over 75% of F5 iRules can be accommodated by native point-and-click features
- Top 10 iRules that can be migrated to native policies on the Advanced Load Balancer by Avi Networks
- How advanced and custom use cases are easily configured with Avi’s DataScript

The Microsoft Azure Cloud is the cloud platform of choice for many enterprises in their digital transformation journey. Migrating applications to the public cloud require strategic considerations for application networking services, like load balancing, visibility, and performance monitoring. Register for this webinar to learn how Avi’s Intent-Based Application Services Platform helps Adobe deliver its digital experiences on Azure.

Topics include:
- Confidently migrating applications to the cloud
- Best practices for application networking in the cloud
- How to elastically scale applications
- Ways to optimize deployments across hybrid clouds

Analytics and data are at the root of better decision-making and automation.

Learn how to:
•Analyze and troubleshoot networking issues in real time
•Record and replay traffic events to identify latency issues
•Generate rich application insights through Avi's integration with Splunk
•Try out Avi Networks on the Splunk Marketplace

Are you tired of troubleshooting with TCPdump? The Avi Vantage Platform (the VMware NSX® Advanced Load Balancer™) is here to help. Learn how you can abandon your decades-old CPU-intensive logging tools – and gain intuitive, real-time analytics, faster time-to-resolution, modern SSL encryption, and (most importantly) happy IT teams focused on delivering applications.

Learn:

-Why TCPdump should be your tool of last resort
-How headers compressed with HTTP/2, SSL leveraging PFS, and distributed systems have rendered certain tools useless
-How automation and visibility can help you troubleshoot more quickly
-How you can replace TCPdump with intelligent logs and analytics

Applications today have evolved into containers and microservices deployed in fully automated and distributed environments across data centers and clouds. Application services such as load balancing, security, and analytics become critical for continuous delivery.
To secure modern web applications, security policies including SSL/TLS, ACLs, IP Reputation, and WAF need to be applied quickly. We will share a reference implementation from Avi Networks.
Watch this webinar to learn:
- CI/CD in the web application security context
- Challenges and solutions integrating a modern web application firewall (WAF) into the application development pipeline
- How to create processes that support both security and development requirements

Learn how to integrate with Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) and deliver multi-cloud application services consistently.

In order to secure modern web applications and effectively prevent attacks, security policies including SSL/TLS, ACLs, IP Reputation, and web application firewall (WAF) need to be automated and applied consistently. Explore how Avi Vantage, now VMware NSX Advanced Load Balancer, provides central control for security policies with a software-defined architecture, and enables agile application security that aligns with DevOps practices.

In this webinar, you will learn about:
- WAF capabilities including positive security model (PSM) to improve security posture
- Modeling application behavior through learning mode to autotune security policies
- A case study with Swisslos on how WAF helps secure their lottery application

Microsoft Azure provides the option of a fully-managed Kubernetes orchestration service - Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) in addition to user-managed Kubernetes running on Azure instances. Avi integrates natively and deeply into both of these deployments in Azure to help autoscale your applications to meet growing demands.

The ability to deliver applications consistently across hybrid and multi-cloud environments is becoming increasingly important for digital business. Network and infrastructure teams are turning to highly automated deployments to support aggressive application roll out schedules and CI/CD pipelines. In this webinar, we explore the foundation of decision automation and orchestration for load balancers and application services by asking:

1. What is the difference between “decision automation” and “task scripting” for application delivery?
2. How do you automate across heterogeneous networks with different constructs and capabilities?
3. What is the architecture needed for application delivery to support day-0 operation?
4. What is required for day-n+ to automate the full lifecycle of application services?

Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) is offered by Microsoft Azure as a fully-managed Kubernetes orchestration service.

Global Server Load Balancing (GSLB) is becoming increasingly critical to ensure multi-site availability and fast app response for geo-distributed users.

Walk through a live demo on how applications can be delivered consistently regardless of the underlying infrastructures.

In this webinar, we will answer why a Multi Cloud is both the challenge and the opportunity when it comes to a cloud strategy.

Are you tired of troubleshooting with TCPdump on your traditional load balancers? Avi Networks has a modern load balancing platform to the rescue. Learn how you can reconsider your decades-old CPU-intensive logging tools – and gain intuitive, real-time analytics, faster time-to-resolution, modern SSL / TLS encryption, and (most importantly) happy IT teams focused on delivering applications.

Assess and understand how the rise of multi-cloud and microservices are ushering in the next-generation of load balancing solutions.

Enterprises are adopting multi-cloud strategies as springboards to increased business agility and competitive differentiation. Elastic, highly-automated application networking services such as load balancing, application monitoring, application acceleration, auto-scaling, micro‑segmentation, and application security, are essential components to deliver this agility.

IDC recently concluded a business value study of Avi Networks’ customers who have benefited from adopting agile application delivery practices. Join IDC’s Brad Casemore and Avi Networks customer Garrett Zorigian from ZOLL Data on a discussion to:

- Learn how software-defined application networking is improving business outcomes.
- Understand best practices for delivering modern applications across clouds.
- See how ZOLL Data was able to automate application delivery in Amazon AWS.
