But a much smaller percentage are known to have implemented a cloud-based DNS (Domain Name System), which offers considerable speed and performance benefits for publishing applications. Why?

Probably less appropriate for smaller, very small IT departments, but more suited like when you're doing migrations to the cloud. If it is going to be doing setups for DNS within the cloud, this will let you help you set it up so there's no loss of communication between the two.

Incapsula as a Web Application Firewall is fantastic and very well priced compared to other products in the market. Load balancing supports management of multiple development and live environments, rewrite rules and behaviour rules to migrate traffic between sites and allow switching between different endpoints. The reporting features allow you too see the level of traffic instantly

Pros
F5
  • I think probably the UI, it's very easily you could scan through and select what you're going to do, and it's kind of similar of the functionality when you compare it to say the Oracle Cloud. So you can go side by side with the windows and then just go through these level when you're going to sell like a new DNS or a new opening on that.

Cons
F5
  • Probably more like AI suggested customizations, like when you do something and then have something like in the background of the AI. When you start doing something, it'll show you what you previously have done and then you could select, you wouldn't have to go through the whole steps over again. It'll say this is what you've done before, do you want to do a copy? And then just modify a couple of things so you don't have to go through the whole process.

When going out to market we reviewed several products to compare. What we discovered was that Incapsula offered the best value and everything that we needed for a business of our size. We are able to "bolt on" bandwidth and functionality as the requirement grows, or scale down if no longer required.

  • I guess positive because we know when we're going to open up, say a DNS or anything, or we're going to have to set something up. We can do it quick and fast instead of having to wait longer for the different steps of how we used to do it before.
