Application Services™ is aligned with the HP SDN approach. F5 aims
to help organizations realize the benefits of intelligent,
programmable systems that seamlessly combine powerful capabilities
from industry-leading vendors.”
The HP AllianceOne partner program offers a solid framework for
collaboration by integrating servers, storage, networking,
security, power & cooling, and services. As a member of the
AllianceOne program, F5 leverages HP AllianceOne solutions, tools,
and resources to help clients speed time to application deployment,
optimize infrastructure capacity, reduce power consumption, and
free resources to focus on innovation that drives business
growth.
Since 2007, HP Networking has provided organizations with open
standards-based SDN solutions, including 30 million OpenFlow ports
and its VAN SDN Controller, which enable customers to explore new
business models and align their networks with business goals. HP
customers and partners have access to HP’s comprehensive SDN
ecosystem, including the software development kit (SDK) and SDN
applications.
“Congratulations to F5 Networks on its HP AllianceOne Partner of
the Year Award for HP Networking – Networking Optimization,” said
Doug Oathout, vice president, Channel and Alliances, Enterprise
Marketing, HP. “F5 has demonstrated outstanding dedication and
expertise in addressing the business and technology needs of its
customers by helping them improve protection against DDoS attacks,
significantly reducing the overall impact on valuable IT services,
as well as extending the reach of SDN.”

ability to develop and deliver solutions that clearly set them
