F5, the global pioneer in delivering and securing every app and API, announces enhanced cloud-native network functions and new observability capabilities that help service providers modernise critical network services as they move from virtualised infrastructure to Kubernetes and cloud-native architectures.
Service providers are under pressure to support growing 5G, edge, IT, and emerging AI workloads, boost efficiency, and maintain the performance, security, and operational control required for carrier-grade services. Moving network functions to Kubernetes lets operators use infrastructure more flexibly but also introduces additional requirements for traffic management, security, lifecycle operations, and visibility across increasingly distributed environments. F5 now accelerates this transition.
