Hybrid-Cloud Application Delivery
Deliver Apps Faster
Looking for consistent, high performance app delivery and web services? NGINX Plus operates stand-alone or can integrate with Azure services – such as existing load balancing solutions – to reduce your application delivery and management costs. NGINX Plus provides enterprise-grade features such as session persistence configuration via API, and active health checks so that you can add advanced application load balancing, monitoring, and management to your Azure application stack.
Integrate with Azure AD
For many organizations, Azure Active Directory (AD) represents the single source of truth about the identities of employees and trusted users. By adding NGINX Plus, you can validate OpenID Connect tokens issued by Azure, enable JWT authentication, and implement role-based access control. The result is consolidated authentication and improved security.
Secure Your Apps
Want to use the same WAF across all your environments – from on-prem to cloud to Kubernetes? With NGINX App Protect, our modern app-security built F5’s market-leading security expertise, you can do just that. Our security-as-code design philosophy makes it easy to integrate security into your agile and DevOps workflows. NGINX App Protect easily integrates with NGINX Plus and NGINX Ingress Controller to protect your apps from a range of threats including OWASP Top 10 and beyond.
Deploy from Azure Government
Together with Azure Government we enable government agencies and their partners to modernize apps and operate in a secure and compliant hybrid-cloud environment. Improve your FIPS compliance by enabling FIPS made on NGINX Plus, which ensures that the clients talking to NGINX Plus are using a strong cipher with a trusted implementation.
