The F5 Application Delivery and Security Platform (ADSP) simplifies app delivery and security by unifying management workflows and reducing operational complexity through automation. F5 BIG-IP Automation Toolchain provides declarative API endpoints, service templates, and orchestration tools to automate deployments, streamline administration, and optimize app delivery and security with ease.
BIG-IP Automation Toolchain is a set of automation tools that makes it faster and easier to deploy and configure F5 application services via simple yet powerful declarative interfaces. It includes F5 Declarative Onboarding for layer 1–3 device provisioning, F5 Application Services 3 Extension for layer 4–7 configuration, and Telemetry Streaming for aggregating, normalizing, and forwarding app statistics and events to 3rd-party analytics. The toolchain enables developers to programmatically extend F5 application services—and integrate with CI/CD toolchains, orchestration systems, and 3rd-party ecosystems.
BIG-IQ Centralized Management has integrated AS3 to speed management, orchestration, and analytics for F5 devices whether they are on premises or in the cloud. It simplifies management, helps ensure compliance, and gives you the tools you need to automatically scale your applications securely and effectively.

As a result of a significant ideological mismatch between app dev teams and enterprise network and security teams, apps are getting released without important traffic management and security services. The solution? Empower NetOps and SecOps to contribute security and network policies that integrate seamlessly into the automation pipeline.
