The vThunder ADC and Harmony Controller are now available in the Oracle Cloud Marketplace, offering added value to Oracle Cloud customers.

The Oracle Cloud Marketplace is a one-stop shop for Oracle customers seeking trusted business applications and service providers offering unique business solutions, including ones that extend Oracle Cloud Applications. Oracle Cloud is a complete public cloud, delivering enterprise-grade services at every level of the cloud technology stack including platform-as-a-service (PaaS), infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS), and data-as-a-service (DaaS).

Modern application delivery and performance requires unwavering flexibility, agility and security. A10 Networks, through its portfolio of cloud-based solutions and capabilities, enables customers to confidently run their enterprise or cloud-native critical workloads at scale. As a result, customers can meet increased traffic demands and keep predictable application service levels. A10 Networks provides superior application availability, leveraging its award-winning, high-performing ACOS technology platform in the cloud. Combined with a unique FlexPool® licensing model, customers can aggregate capacity for flexible allocation and re-distribution of capacity for applications running in the cloud.

“A10 Networks is proud to partner with Oracle to support Oracle Cloud Infrastructure,” said Raj Jalan, CTO at A10 Networks. “Powered by Oracle Cloud, A10 Networks solutions provide customers with agile application delivery controller capabilities focused on secure and efficient application support. Furthermore, the company’s leading application traffic analytics, centralized management and orchestration dashboard provide Oracle Cloud customers with actionable intelligence through a single pane of glass for operational efficiency.”

A10 Networks vThunder software appliances are secure application services that serve a wide variety of application requirements and workloads on virtual infrastructure. In addition, A10 Networks vThunder software appliances integrate with cloud, software-defined networking (SDN) and network functions virtualization (NFV) orchestration platforms to support building programmable software networks. Implementing virtualized L4-L7 server load balancing with vThunder ADC as a virtual network function (VNF) will optimize, accelerate and secure applications within Oracle Cloud. Scaling web and infrastructure servers seamlessly ensures business continuity, accelerates applications for efficient operations and protects infrastructure for uninterrupted operations.

The A10 Harmony Controller simplifies operations and increases the agility of the operations teams. Infrastructure and application operations teams can centrally-manage infrastructure configuration and application policies for vThunder application services, such as load balancing and application delivery. Configuration and control can also be automated via APIs and integrated with orchestration systems used within organizations. In addition, the controller provides comprehensive infrastructure and per-application metrics and analytics for performance and security monitoring, anomaly detection and faster troubleshooting.

Powered by Oracle Cloud status recognizes OPN member solutions that have been tested or verified to run on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. This achievement offers customers the confidence that the partner’s application is supported by the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure SLA, enabling full access and control over their cloud infrastructure services as well as consistent performance.

The Oracle Cloud Marketplace offers an intuitive user interface to browse and search for available applications and services, as well as user ratings and reviews to help customers determine the best business solutions for their organization. With its new automated application installation features, customers can easily deploy provider business applications from a centralized cloud interface.
