Securely Modernize Kubernetes Apps with F5 and Google Cloud

Today's organizations use the Kubernetes platform to modernize their applications, making them more adaptable and scalable. Promoting containerization and microservices architectures, Kubernetes enables consistent application behavior and performance across various environments and helps streamline cloud migration. Last year, over 20% of surveyed professional software developers reported extensive use of Kubernetes.1

Typically, during large organizational application modernization initiatives, each line of business (LoB) stands up a host of their own services, develops new applications, and migrates existing applications to the cloud. While Kubernetes is a powerful and versatile platform to progress these application modernization initiatives, its extensive use by various LoB teams can raise challenges for SecOps teams. These challenges may include an increased attack surface, ephemeral containers, limited visibility, distributed workloads, and rapid deployments.

Organizations must provide each LoB with flexibility in protecting their newly built and migrated applications to ensure that application modernization is an effective and efficient endeavor. Together, Google Cloud and F5 can equip organizations with frictionless security to confidently develop and operate adaptive, modern applications. Read on to learn how.
