F5 BIG-IP virtual editions (VEs) are virtual application delivery controllers (vADCs) that can be deployed on all leading hypervisors and cloud platforms running on commodity servers. BIG-IP VEs deliver all the same market-leading application delivery services - including advanced traffic management, acceleration, DNS, firewall, and access management - that run on F5 purpose-built hardware. VE software images are downloadable and portable between on-premises virtualized data center, public cloud, and private cloud environments. With BIG-IP virtual editions and F5 BIG-IQ Centralized Management solutions, you can rapidly provision consistent application services across the data center and into the cloud.
