in execution and furthest in vision within Leaders quadrant
F5 Networks (NASDAQ: FFIV) today announced that it has
again been positioned by Gartner, Inc. in the Leaders
quadrant of its Magic Quadrant for Application Delivery
Controllers (ADCs), published October 6, 2015.
“Software continues to be the growth engine for F5 ADCs, with
many customers choosing virtual, cloud, and as-a-service offerings,
as well as traditional hardware and hybrid deployments,” said Manny
Rivelo, President and CEO, F5. “We believe that longstanding
recognition as a Leader in the ADC Magic Quadrant points to the
success customers are having with innovative offerings like F5
Silverline® services and the strength of our overall Synthesis™
vision.”
In describing the market, Gartner states that “(a)pplication
delivery controllers (ADCs) provide functions that optimize
delivery of enterprise applications across the network. ADCs
provide functionality for both user-to-application and
application-to-application traffic, and effectively bridge the gap
between the application and underlying protocols and traditional
packet-based networks.”1
