It's kind of funny how things go full circle. Today, AWS re: Invent, we launched NetScaler on AWS. Literally. As in, from the AWS Marketplace, you can start a NetScaler or CloudBridge AMI AMI in your AWS cloud environment.
NetScaler debuted in the cloud, before we even call the cloud. In other words, the first deployments of NetScaler were in data centers that hosted the first wave of super-massive applications "webscale". These are the first cloud data centers. False design principles in these data centers over time evolved into the basic architecture used in larger public and private clouds today.
trial by fire to be "online" in these data centers influences everything we do. He led many of our functional improvements (including things you would not normally associate with an ADC as load balancing Datastream database and AppFlow for application visibility). The of these cloud data centers elasticity requirements have led the thinking behind NetScaler TriScale. And it is why there are more than two years ago we started working with AWS to make NetScaler available as AMI on AWS.
fundamental to this effort is that "NetScaler NetScaler should be." The MAI is a package of the same bit used on NetScaler MPX and SDX appliances and NetScaler VPX virtual appliances. NetScaler in AWS supports all the same features L4 -7 (eg, load balancing, content switching, the overall load balancing server, SSL VPN, application firewall, etc.) that works on site. This is another example of things coming full circle. We take for granted that we can get all the above in a single device on site. So far, in the cloud, we had to knit together separate virtual machines for L4 load balancing, the L7 handling, caching, security, etc. NetScaler on AWS allows you to consolidate all this in one MAI, all governed by the same management policy framework. Using the recently introduced elastic interface network (ENI ) and multi-IP functionality of AWS VPC, a single NetScaler instance can host multiple personalities, several vservers, and attach to different subnets within a VPC. Without functional parity and configuration, all use cases (dev / test, DR / BC, producing overflow or even simple migration of an application or workload from on-site to the cloud) that involve covering own data centers and the breaking clouds.
also fundamental for NetScaler on AWS supported elasticity / flexibility we expect from cloud. From a technical perspective on AWS CloudBridge really helps here, as it makes it very easy to set up an optimized WAN, secure tunnel between your data center and AWS. This helps to AWS like a natural extension of your corporate network. global load balancing server will play a huge role here too, both the rise building and upgrade charge / distribution of traffic between and through zones AWS, AWS regions and on site data centers.
For providing the elasticity, in addition to allowing "bring your own license" (including all salaries / grow and burst, you are waiting), NetScaler is available "by-the- hour "on the AWS market. Whether you need a single NetScaler for a short period of time, much NetScalers for a period of time, or you just need a NetScaler now AWS Marketplace allows you to start / immediately and turn them like immediately. This is cloud elasticity; you only pay for what you use when you use
If you're AWS re :. Invent, feel free to swing by the Citrix booth. We can guide you through all the details (but again, NetScaler NetScaler). Some of our lead engineers and architects are here too. They, like you, will be present at many sessions, but they will also be on the stand by time to time as well.
