Thunder ADC uses advanced Layer 4-7 load balancing, customizable health checks, and global server load balancing (GSLB) to help keep applications available across data centers and cloud environments. If an application or server becomes unavailable, traffic can be directed to healthy resources to help maintain service continuity and improve the end-user experience.
Thunder ADC provides consistent application delivery services across hardware appliances, virtual machines, bare metal, containers, and public cloud environments. Organizations can apply consistent application delivery policies while supporting applications across on-premises, cloud, and hybrid deployments.
Thunder ADC improves application performance with capabilities including SSL/TLS offload, TCP optimization, RAM caching, compression, and intelligent load balancing. By offloading resource-intensive processing from application servers, organizations can improve application responsiveness while making more efficient use of existing infrastructure.
Thunder ADC delivers a consistent feature set across physical, virtual, containerized, and cloud deployments, making it easier to standardize application delivery across distributed environments. When integrated with A10 Control, organizations gain centralized visibility, management, analytics, and automation to simplify ongoing operations.
