F5 has expanded its multi-cloud capabilities by establishing partnerships with Console Connect, NetApp and Red Hat. These partnerships offer unparalleled connectivity, data management and workload migration solutions for enterprises.
The collaboration with Console Connect integrates F5’s technology across multiple points of presence, leveraging Console Connect’s Tier 1 IP network to enable secure and efficient data movement across cloud environments. This partnership eliminates reliance on public internet for private connectivity, enhancing multi-cloud security and efficiency.
F5’s alliance with NetApp delivers robust data mobility capabilities, maximising hybrid cloud ROI and reducing IT overhead. NetApp’s Blue XP provides a unified, cloud-native management experience for storage and data services across multi-cloud, hybrid and on-premises environments. This integration ensures data security, availability and cost-performance optimisation. F5’s Distributed Cloud Services complement this by offering a secure multi-cloud networking (MCN) solution that simplifies the connection between on-premises NetApp storage and Cloud Volumes ONTAP.
The enhanced collaboration with Red Hat focuses on simplifying cloud workload migration and management using Red Hat OpenShift Service on AWS (ROSA). By integrating F5 Distributed Cloud Services with ROSA, enterprises can manage hybrid cloud environments with improved security, reduced complexity and lower costs. F5 Distributed Cloud App Connect facilitates seamless app-to-app communication and security-optimized workload migration, ensuring consistency, security, and visibility.
