What it is
Radware Alteon is an application delivery controller and security platform for enterprises and service providers running applications across on-premises, private cloud, and public cloud environments. Its delivery functions include server and global server load balancing, SSL offloading, HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 optimization, compression, TCP optimization, and TCL AppShape++ scripting. Alteon Protect adds cloud WAAP services for web application firewalls, API security, bot protection, and web DDoS protection. Radware says cloud application security can scale without traffic rerouting, SSL key sharing, or routing changes. Global Elastic Licensing pools ADC licenses across environments and adjusts capacity with demand. Native integrations include VMware, OpenStack, Nutanix, AWS, Azure, GCP, and Kubernetes. REST APIs, Ansible, Terraform, and orchestration tools support lifecycle automation. Alteon VA provides SLA visibility, root cause analysis, anomaly detection, and unified analytics. Alteon is paid with pricing on request and no free plan. The Secure package limits SSO to 500 concurrent users.
