• OVHcloud and F5 make it easier for customers to deploy any application or API anywhere without compromising security, creating an ideal solution for hybrid deployments
  • Web App and API Protection (WAAP) and secure multicloud networking for all OVHcloud instances, including bare-metal, hosted private cloud and public cloud

OVHcloud® US, a global cloud player and leading European cloud provider, today announced a collaboration with multicloud application security provider, F5. As a result of this collaborative effort, OVHcloud customers will now have access to F5 Distributed Cloud Services, providing infrastructure-agnostic solutions that reduce the complexity of networking across data centers, clouds, and the edge while enabling consistent app security policy and enforcement.

As a pioneer in multicloud application security and delivery, F5 helps customers solve the uniquely complex challenges inherent in securely connecting applications and APIs across hybrid multicloud environments. OVHcloud customers will be able to send traffic across F5’s private global network to provide integrated web application and API protection where apps are deployed. By extending Distributed Cloud Services locally into customer environments with lightweight software extensions (Customer Edge), app security services can be safely delivered while isolated from the public Internet. These Customer Edge extensions also enable simple, secure multicloud networking for private interconnections of sites (whether GenAI, traditional, highly regulated apps, etc.) on-premises, edge, or other private/public cloud providers.

“As organizations accelerate their digital transformation journeys, the need for robust security and seamless connectivity across diverse cloud environments has never been more critical," said Pranav Dharwadkar, VP of Product Management, Distributed Cloud Services at F5. "Our collaboration with OVHcloud US empowers customers to effortlessly deploy and secure applications and APIs anywhere, from on-premises data centers to hybrid multicloud and the edge. We are proud to extend the networking and security capabilities of the platform to OVHcloud's extensive customer base and drive the future of cloud computing together.”

F5 supports cloud deployments in a globally distributed fashion without compromising security by:

  • Reducing network management overhead with automatic, self-healing, private connectivity between apps, clusters, and APIs.
  • Accelerating time to market by simplifying app security enforcement for distributed apps when deploying or migrating apps to different environments.
  • Increasing app portability by reducing the friction connecting apps across multiple Kubernetes distributions.

“We are pleased to expand our relationship with F5, a well-established multicloud networking and security provider,” said OVHcloud US General Manager Jeffrey Gregor. “As our customers increasingly look to modernize their applications, move entirely to the cloud, or expand their hybrid cloud footprint, it’s important that we prioritize solutions that are proven to radically simplify hybrid, multicloud connectivity and app security.”
