This instructor-led lab will provide hands on experience with the ADC performance-based autoscaling solution. The solution illustrates how F5's Automation Toolchain can integrate with third party analytics provider(s) to provide cloud-agnostic centralized application delivery monitoring and autoscaling.
During this lab attendees will:
-
Utilize various third-party technologies/services along with F5’s automation toolchain including:
- F5 BIG-IP(s) providing L4/L7 ADC Services
- F5 Declarative Onboarding, (DO) and Application Services 3 Extension, (AS3) to deploy to configure BIG-IP application services
- F5 Telemetry Streaming, (TS) to stream telemetry data to a third party analytics provider
- GitHub Actions for workflow automation
- Azure public cloud for application hosting
- Hashicorp Terraform and Consul for infrastructure provisioning, service discovery and event logging
- Elastic ELK Stack, (integrated with BIG-IP(s) via TS) for monitoring and alerting
- Locust.io for load generation
-
Deploy a cloud-based application, along with related infrastructure.
-
Manage autoscaling operations via a centralized ADPM environment and a third party analytics provider, (Elastic ELK stack) for monitoring/alerting.
