The hybrid-cloud model is an effective way to align IT priorities with business needs. Many businesses can benefit from using a hybrid-cloud model instead of other approaches. Citrix provides customers with choice in how they deploy and manage applications. Whether they want to keep workloads on premises or shift business-critical applications to the cloud, Citrix is here to help. That’s why we’re proud to announce that Citrix ADC is now validated in Azure Stack Hub (update 2008 and above) for both a standalone and HA deployment, simplifying application delivery in hybrid-cloud environments with Azure.
Azure Stack Hub broadens Azure to enable you to run apps in an on-premises environment and to deliver Azure services in your datacenter. As organizations speed up digital transformation, many are finding they can move faster by using public cloud services to build on modern architectures and refresh legacy apps. Many workloads, however, must remain on-premises. For example, there might be technological and regulatory obstacles.
Now, you can deploy your Citrix ADCs in the cloud and on premises, all via Azure, and extend the Azure experience across your entire environment.
With Citrix ADC as a validated partner product in Azure Stack Hub, Citrix customers will benefit from:
- Operational consistency across hybrid-cloud environments with Azure services, infrastructure, and operations for Azure cloud, on-prem Citrix ADCs, and Azure Stack Hub.
- Flexible pooled capacity licensing, which eases migration of applications to the cloud when the time is right.
Citrix ADC Azure Stack is available now in the Azure Marketplace.
The Citrix solution also includes Citrix Application Delivery Management (ADM), which enables you to manage your entire Citrix ADC infrastructure across your Azure environment — cloud and Azure Stack Hub — with the same tools, from a single pane of glass. Citrix ADM also provides real-time insights about the status of your entire hybrid-cloud environment and helps you to resolve issues quicker with proactive troubleshooting.
With the validation of Citrix ADC VPX in Azure Stack Hub, Citrix can provide the ultimate choice and flexibility for your ADC deployment. Now you can deliver a great user experience and security for your applications no matter how, or where, you deploy them.
