Thunder Threat Protection System (TPS) Enables
Service Providers to Build and Operate Elastic DDoS Defenses with
100 Gbps in a Single Virtual Appliance
A10 Networks (NYSE: ATEN), today announced it has delivered the
industry’s highest-performance virtual DDoS defense solution with
its software version of the Thunder Threat Protection System (TPS)
solution, vThunder TPS. The enhanced vThunder TPS provides 100 Gbps
throughput in a single virtual appliance and can be expanded to 800
Gbps with eight-way clustering. As a result, service providers can
build elastic DDoS defenses that can be incrementally scaled during
wartime when peak capacity is required. vThunder TPS is compact and
efficient, allowing it to be deployed in next-generation mobile
edge compute (MEC) environments, conserving space and power while
providing powerful DDoS protection.
5G mobile operators and cloud service providers are increasingly
moving from purpose-built hardware-centric infrastructures to be
more agile and virtualized. These operators need DDoS defenses that
can keep pace with this movement toward elastic, virtualized
private clouds. The transition to 5G makes this even more critical
as operators need to be able to ensure the availability of business
services against the potential for large DDoS attacks, particularly
during high-visibility times like global sporting events and
seasonal shopping spikes. DDoS attacks will only increase in
severity as operators expand services to support IoT-driven energy,
agriculture, transportation, healthcare and manufacturing.
vThunder TPS provides operators a cost-efficient way to protect
their networks and infrastructures without over-provisioning DDoS
defense capacity. vThunder TPS provides customers:
- Cloud-ready DDoS Defense: Customers are able to gain
deployment and operational flexibility with DDoS defenses that
support major private cloud platforms including KVM, VMware ESXi
and Microsoft Hyper-V. A high-performance 100 Gbps virtual
appliance can scale to 800 Gbps with eight-way clustering to meet
the performance needs of 5G mobile operators and cloud
providers.
- Agility and Scalability: With A10’s FlexPool® licensing,
capacity can be scaled up in hours via license allocation rather
than in weeks or months required for hardware purchasing, delivery
and installation. Capacity can be scaled back down by reallocating
licenses to other points of presence when intermittent demand
subsides. A10’s subscription price model also provides lower
start-up and upgrade costs.
- Comprehensive Protection: When combined with the Orion
5G Security Suite, vThunder TPS provides high-performance DDoS
detection and mitigation and protection against other threats
across mobile and cloud network infrastructures.
Availability
vThunder TPS is available now. vThunder TPS with 100 Gbps
performance is available in March 2020.
