A10 Networks ties up with Cisco over Application Networking Services

A10 Networks has announced integration of its Thunder Application Delivery Controllers (ADCs) with Cisco Application-Centric Infrastructure (ACI) fabric. Offering dynamic L4-L7 application networking services, this joint solution enables enterprises to amplify their data center output by automatically provisioning application delivery and security services with a significant increase in both allocation speed and business agility – all at a reduced cost. 
“Our vision to deliver on-demand, policy-based mechanisms for dynamic L4-L7 services in a cloud environment closely aligns with the streamlined application delivery cycles of the Cisco ACI common policy framework. By combining A10 Thunder ADC and Cisco ACI solutions, we are able to provide enterprises with rich application delivery and security capabilities in a shared infrastructure,” said Raj Jalan, CTO of A10 Networks. 
The open framework of Cisco ACI enables ecosystem partners such as A10 to seamlessly interoperate with Cisco ACI fabric. Together, the Cisco ACI and A10 Thunder ADC solutions provide an automated approach to networking services based on application-specific policies that allow data center applications to dynamically scale on demand.
“Rapidly-evolving application paradigms and associated infrastructures require the seamless integration of application network services into today’s data center fabrics. The integration of Cisco ACI with the combined performance of A10 Networks’ Thunder ADCs and ACOS operating system programmatic interfaces makes this scale and agility a reality,” said Soni Jiandani, SVP – Marketing, Cisco.

Cisco ACI technology provides the ability to insert Layer 4 through Layer 7 services into the Cisco Application Policy Infrastructure Controller (APIC) via simplified definitions. The A10 APIC device package automates ACI service chaining and the insertion of physical, virtual, and hybrid A10 Thunder appliances. The device package has been rigorously tested by A10 Networks in Cisco ACI environments to offer rich L4-L7 network application services and templates as well as HTTP optimization services for Cisco’s ACI fabric. The A10 device package uses open APIs and scripts that allow Cisco APIC to configure consistent automation and orchestration of
Application Delivery Controller (ADC) services within the fabric required to deploy applications in a fast, highly secure and reliable manner. See more at:
