User Experience & Application Performance

The F5 approach to user experience and application performance

Applications running across large or complex networks don't always perform as expected. Bandwidth is often under-utilized and sluggish response times can frustrate end users. Poor performance leads to lost productivity, inefficient manual workarounds, and reduced agility. On an Internet shopping site, for example, poor performance could cost millions in revenue.

Why act now?

If your organization is planning data-center consolidation, repairs on under-performing applications, or the deployment of new applications, you may have an urgent need to address user experience and application performance. Every business, though, should take measures to improve application performance and keep users satisfied.

Why F5?

F5 is the only vendor that simplifies acceleration and availability for both private and public users under a single management framework.

Using our iRules technology, we are also the only vendor that can provide network-based application logic and optimization. We reduce unnecessary protocol communication across the network, and we offer the only full universal translation capabilities.

Solution Guides for User Experience & Application Performance

	Solution Guide #1: Overview Today's web acceleration products can help alleviate the pain, accelerating web applications to remote and mobile users, reducing bandwidth usage by lowering the amount of data sent, and improving server capacity by offloading repetitive content.
