Seamless Application Delivery With Parallels RAS
Last updated on October 6, 2022
Seamless Application Delivery: Traditional on-premises applications are quickly becoming a thing of the past. Upgrades and customization have become costly. Custom-built add-ons and extensions complicate the upgrade process. Moreover, this model doesn’t offer predictable costs.
With companies turning to a cloud-based SaaS model, application delivery has now become easy and efficient. According to the Forrester survey, application economics are quickly changing with adoption of the cloud. Application usage and value is quickly extended by the increasing mobile technology. Additionally, embedded modeling tools offer application flexibility.
The Challenges of Seamless Application Delivery
Cloud-based application delivery provides several benefits to organizations. Agility, scalability, device-independence, centralized management, secure delivery and optimized costs are some of them. Along with these benefits come a few challenges. With the BYOD explosion, different types of mobile devices come into the picture. It is a challenge to provide a rich and consistent user experience across a variety of devices. Secondly, the increased use of smartphones to access corporate networks creates security challenges for IT staff. Privilege-based access must be implemented. Thirdly, high availability and scalability are important to maintain employee productivity levels. Application delivery has to balance server load effectively in order to provide good performance and high availability of applications. A comprehensive application delivery solution that can provide a centralized management system is called for. Finally, the complexity of the installation and configuration of virtualization servers is a concern.
The Key Elements
- Management of Application Delivery (ADM). Technology that offers a thorough understanding of how apps are distributed across many cloud environments is referred to as ADM. A powerful ADM solution makes IT monitoring easier.
- Network for Application Delivery (ADN). ADN prioritizes the delivery of programs and offers dependable access for the end user using real-time data. In order to provide visibility, security, speed, and application readiness, an ADN functions as a cluster of services that syncs deployment over a network.
- Controller for Application Delivery (ADC). ADCs are network appliances or software-defined controllers (or control planes) designed to enhance the performance, security, and dependability of app delivery over the web. ADC capability is often delivered by load balancers. The proper distribution of application traffic among several servers is ensured by load balancing.
