Nova Controller
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.
Load Balancer as a Service
With Snapt Nova, you don't buy a load balancer – you get the superpower to create an unlimited number of load balancers and WAFs on-demand!
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.
Multi-Cloud, Edge Compute, and Cloud-Native
Centralized control of application infrastructure enables distributed applications.
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.
Continuous Improvement
With Snapt Nova, you get centralized control as standard.
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.
Self-Healing Infrastructure
Devices with an integrated control plane and data plane are inherently fragile.
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.

What Does Centralized Control Look Like?
Nova deploys application services and autoscalers to Nova Nodes in front of your backends and application servers.
