Application Delivery for Google Cloud Platform
Multi-cloud application services alternative to Google Cloud load balancing
Public clouds like the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) have become attractive options for businesses migrating to the cloud. To effectively deliver applications with a consistent experience and ensure optimal performance, enterprise-grade application services such as elastic load balancing, security and analytics are needed across on-premises and clouds.
While the Google Cloud Load Balancer offers distributed, software-defined features, it lacks advanced features such as: multi-cloud support, content-switching, caching, and application analytics / monitoring.
Avi Vantage: Enterprise-Grade, Multi-Cloud Load Balancing for Google Cloud Platform
The Avi Vantage Platform is a multi-cloud application services platform that offers load balancing, web application firewall, and service mesh capabilities. Unlike Google Cloud Load Balancing, Avi Vantage is a full-featured load balancer that provides ludicrous elasticity through on-demand autoscaling and end-to-end automation for L4-L7 services. Avi App Insights also provide unparalleled visibility and analytics for real-time application health, end-to-end timing, traffic logs, security insights, client insights, giving you more control over application performance than exclusively using the Google load balancer.
