Replace expensive load balancer appliances with software services running on commodity x86 hardware or VMs, scaling elastically to match demand without vendor lock-in to legacy ADCs.

Web application firewall

Built-in WAF with OWASP Top 10 protection, signature-based and behavioral attack detection, and automated learning mode safeguards web apps and APIs from injection, XSS, and bot attacks.

Multi-cloud & Kubernetes ready

Deploy across VMware Cloud Foundation, AWS, Azure, GCP, OpenStack, and Kubernetes from a single control plane, with native integrations for Tanzu, OpenShift, and ingress automation.

Beyond licensing, a seamless, fully supported VMware AVI Load Balancer experience with Discreet Vision.

Why Your Business Needs VMware AVI Load Balancer

AVI Load Balancer isn't just an application delivery controller, it's the software-defined load balancing platform combining elastic ADC, WAF, GSLB, and analytics across data center, public cloud, and Kubernetes.

Replace Legacy ADC Hardware: AVI replaces expensive F5 BIG-IP, Citrix NetScaler, and other legacy load balancer appliances with a software-defined platform that scales elastically and runs on existing x86 servers.

Built-In Web Application Firewall: Integrated WAF with OWASP Top 10 coverage, behavioral detection, and adaptive learning safeguards web applications and APIs from injection, cross-site scripting, and bot attacks.

Multi-Cloud Consistency: Deploy and manage load balancing consistently across VMware Cloud Foundation, AWS, Azure, GCP, OpenStack, and bare metal from one control plane with unified policies and analytics.

AI-Powered Analytics: Built-in real-time analytics provide deep visibility into application performance, end-user response times, and security events with AI-powered anomaly detection and automated triage.

Built for how modern enterprises deliver applications across hybrid clouds.

Everything your business needs to deliver applications across hybrid environments, delivered in one software-defined platform covering elastic load balancing, WAF, GSLB, container ingress, multi-cloud automation, AI-powered analytics, and intent-based scaling on x86.

Software-Defined Load Balancing

AVI replaces traditional hardware load balancer appliances with a software-defined architecture running on commodity x86 servers, virtual machines, or containers, eliminating vendor lock-in to F5 BIG-IP, Citrix NetScaler, or proprietary hardware ADCs. Service Engines are lightweight load balancing data plane VMs that scale horizontally on demand to match traffic load, while the AVI Controller provides centralized policy management and analytics across Service Engines from one pane of glass.

Web Application Firewall & Security

Built-in WAF protection includes OWASP Top 10 coverage, signature-based attack detection, behavioral analysis, IP reputation filtering, and automatic learning mode that profiles application traffic patterns to detect anomalies. Protect web applications and APIs from SQL injection, cross-site scripting, and bot attacks. SSL/TLS termination with hardware acceleration, certificate management, and PCI compliance support are integrated into the platform without separate licenses required.

Global Server Load Balancing & DNS

GSLB capabilities distribute traffic intelligently across geographically dispersed data centers based on health checks, latency, geography, weights, or active-passive failover policies, ensuring continuous availability for global applications during regional outages. AVI’s authoritative DNS handles GSLB resolution natively without separate DNS infrastructure. Service discovery integrations with VMware NSX, AWS Route 53, and other DNS providers automate GSLB record creation.

Kubernetes & Container Ingress

AVI Kubernetes Operator delivers native ingress controller capabilities for Kubernetes clusters, OpenShift, Tanzu, and EKS with automatic load balancer provisioning, service mesh integration, and policy-driven L4-L7 routing for containerized applications. Automatic certificate management, IPAM integration, and ingress traffic analytics work out of the box. The same AVI control plane manages traditional VM-based applications and modern Kubernetes workloads, simplifying operations.

AI Analytics & Multi-Cloud Automation

Built-in real-time analytics surface deep visibility into application performance, end-user response times, transaction logs, and security events, with AI-powered anomaly detection automatically identifying performance issues, attacks, and configuration drift. Multi-cloud automation deploys and manages load balancing consistently across VMware Cloud Foundation, AWS, Azure, GCP, OpenStack, and bare metal from one control plane with unified policies and intent-based scaling.
