Nova decouples the control plane from the data plane, and centralizes the intelligence in the Nova Cloud Controller. Deploy, configure, and monitor thousands of Nova load balancers and WAFs from a "single pane of glass".
Scale, Protect, and Adapt – Smarter and Faster
Nova's centralized control plane enables Software Defined Load Balancing with a real-time low-latency connection to millions of data plane nodes.
Nova ingests traffic, app, and server data, making it the perfect platform for machine learning and AI. Nova is self-learning and provides an autonomous response to threats, outages, and performance drops.
Nova's lightweight ADC services have no on-node configuration or UI, and minimal intelligence to operate autonomously. This means they use far less resources than other load balancers and WAFs.
Control, Automation, and Telemetry
The Nova Controller deploys app services to any number of lightweight Nova worker nodes, pulling app telemetry from every backend. DevOps can fully automate scalable app services via API and output telemetry data too.
This is only possible because Nova shifts the intelligence and control into the cloud.
Now your application infrastructure works in the same way as your cloud resources and other modern SaaS tools. Scale-up, scale-down, manage it remotely and only pay for what you use.
Shift your infrastructure and capacity planning from a CapEx to an OpEx model to replace lock-in and over-provisioning with freedom and agility.
Complexity is often cited as the main reason not to adopt a multi-cloud or containerized strategy, or to deploy distributed applications on edge compute.
Ensuring security and observability in multiple clouds, clusters of Kubernetes containers or thousands of edge nodes is a huge challenge for standalone load balancers and WAFs, or the own-brand ones available in public clouds.
Nova works in every cloud simultaneously, and manages application infrastructure in millions of edge nodes or containers from a central UI, removing the complexity.
That means you get a solution for load balancing and securing your websites, apps, and APIs designed to function with centralized control from Day 1.
Our commitment to this model helped us to build a solution that has a lot of advantages for you – such as lightweight and resource-efficient application services, and the ability to feed Nova's enormous datasets through machine learning (ML) that continually makes Nova smarter.
You can speed up deployment, and empower application developers without compromising security.
You won't get these benefits built-in anywhere else.
If the device is damaged, the configuration and data might be lost. When disasters strike, recovery can be slow or costly, because you need to deploy new infrastructure and restore the previous configuration from backups.
Nova shifts all the value to the centralized control plane, so disasters have little effect and Nova can self-heal in seconds. If your Nova Nodes are destroyed in a disaster, Nova can re-deploy instantly to healthy nodes, with all the configuration replicated from the centralized Nova Cloud Controller.
