  • Managing with common Linux deployment tools
  • Granular control of your ADC deployment

Key benefits:

  • Hardware agnostic
  • Cloud ready: No certificates needed to run in cloud
  • Super-fast performance: No hypervisor or container overhead
  • Economical: No need for hypervisor software
  • Other Linux-based applications can also run on the same host
  • Standard Linux tools work to manage and monitor NetScaler BLX appliances
