Modern Load Balancing — Bring the Public Cloud Experience
For businesses today, the ability to rapidly and cost-effectively deploy, and update applications is paramount. The infrastructure powering applications needs to deliver the efficiency of cloud operating models. The software-defined platform delivers applications consistently across bare metal servers, virtual machines and containers to ensure a fast, scalable, and secure application experience.

For our end consumers, the fact that they don’t even know that we use Avi speaks volumes for how effective it is at its job. The best things in life are those that you don’t know exist but just work.
- Paul McDonald, Vice President Of Community Management, Deutsche Bank
We saved over 50% to 60% in application troubleshooting...with software-defined solutions.
- Joris Vuffray, Head Of Network & System Management, Swisslos
One of the charming things about the Avi Controller-based architecture is that you define your configuration centrally and the instantiation happens in the backend and all the resources get managed automatically. It was of big interest to us.
- Dieter Pollet, Cloud Architect, Proximus
My colleague found Avi’s architecture and approach with central management very attractive. We immediately entered a PoC since the solution conceptually matched exactly what we were looking for—streamlining configuration and making it ready for centralized and automated operations.
