Overall Satisfaction with F5 Distributed Cloud App Stack
Great for load balancing, traffic management, securing, and protecting cloud apps. It is a scalable and flexible platform with multiple features to support complex hybrid and multi-cloud environments. BIG-IP Cloud App Stack is slightly on the expensive side, but worth the cost given its WAF and DDoS protection and its integration with DevOps workflows.
Pros
- Complex cloud configurations.
- WAF and DDoS protection.
- Automation and workflow integration.
Cons
- Complex to configure.
- Price
- Overkill solution for small businesses.
- Price
- Frequent patching.
- Clunky terraform/UI.
