APPLICATION-CENTRIC MANAGEMENT WITH BIG-IP CLOUD EDITION  

While BIG-IQ provides single pane-of-glass management of all your F5 solutions, it also delivers application-specific management. BIG-IQ and BIG-IP Per-App VEs used together form BIG-IP Cloud Edition—a new solution for enabling DevOps and application developers to manage network services for their own applications.

With BIG-IP Cloud Edition, the network administrator can empower application teams to view the health and security of their applications, modify network services, and even automatically spin up or spin down virtual BIG-IP instances as their business needs change.
