F5 AppWorld 2025 showcased the evolution of Application Delivery Controllers (ADCs) amidst the AI-driven application landscape. The event emphasized how ADCs have progressed from hardware appliances for load-balancing to sophisticated virtual solutions that support various deployment models, including cloud and hybrid environments. F5's presentation underscored the urgent need for organizations to adapt their security measures to handle the complexities of AI applications, which are increasingly prevalent but often inadequately protected against complex traffic patterns.
Virtual editions of application delivery services have the same breadth of features as those that run on purpose-built hardware and remove much of the complexity from moving application services between virtual, cloud and hybrid environments.
F5 states that enterprises today are poorly equipped to secure and deliver these enterprise apps and cope with the massive amounts of data they process through complex traffic patterns.
