F5 celebrates a decade in the Leaders
quadrant, positioned as highest in execution by prominent industry
analysts
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 August 29, 2016.
“With cloud and as-a-service offerings joining hybrid
deployments at the forefront of the market, it’s an exciting time
in the ADC space,” said Ben Gibson, EVP and Chief Marketing Officer
at F5. “We believe F5’s standing in the Magic Quadrant over time
mirrors the value customers see in our technology and services
portfolio, with differentiated capabilities across software and
hardware solutions.”
In describing the market, Gartner states, “Application delivery
controllers (ADCs) provide functions that optimize delivery of
enterprise applications across the enterprise 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
