This year marks more than 10 years of partnership between F5 and AWS, and we’re proud of the past decade of innovation. From advanced cloud-based applications and API protection to seamless multicloud connectivity, F5 and AWS have joined forces to help more than 1,000 organizations secure their cloud journeys.
Over the years, organizations have used our robust portfolio to help accelerate cloud migrations, secure cloud applications, and improve user experiences with AWS cloud services. And as we enter the next decade of partnership, we’re helping customers prepare for the new era of AI, while continuing to connect and secure their AWS environments.

Here are three areas where we’re focusing our efforts:
- Improving Kubernetes performance for apps or to prepare for AI. F5 BIG-IP Next for Kubernetes software delivers a central point of control to speed container ingress and egress at high-volume—soon to be available for Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS). BIG-IP Next for Kubernetes maximizes load balancing in Kubernetes and container security, which is critical for organizations planning AI workloads.
- Accelerating secure AI-powered app development. As many organizations leverage AI to improve efficiency and build market-differentiating products, strong security is paramount. With F5 and AWS, customers get AWS’s powerful infrastructure and tools for building and training AI models along with F5’s robust security solutions that enhance safety and performance across the cloud, edge, or on-premises.
- Taming the complexity of multicloud. Hybrid and multicloud environments can feel chaotic, but F5 offers simplicity. Whether organizations are looking to unify their security policies across platforms or ensure seamless connections between AWS and other cloud services, F5’s centralized management offers the control and visibility needed to provide great digital experiences.
