Edgio Applications v7 Improves Security, Web Performance

Edgio announces the general availability of the Edgio Applications Platform v7 with integrated performance and security features designed to increase organizational revenues and accelerate developer team velocity through better website performance and multi-layer security.

Through the integrated platform, Edgio provides a solution that reduces the need for point solutions, while it lets organizations deploy faster, better-protected applications that boost site performance.

With the Edgio Applications platform, teams can deploy website updates twice as often, while building performance and security directly into their applications through a unified workflow. Integrated with Edgio’s global content delivery network (CDN), the platform helps developers harness the complexity of application architectures and technology stacks and contain spiraling costs and increasing numbers of cloud platforms, services and tools many organizations face.

The Edgio Applications Platform comprises three components:

  • Performance, accelerating web applications and APIs
  • Sites, an integrated web application development platform
  • Security, a holistic security solution that ensures the confidentiality, integrity and availability of web applications and APIs

By providing these three solutions in one integrated platform, Edigo helps companies make their web applications safer, faster and more reliable.

Critical new capabilities of Applications v7 include:

  • Integrated app-aware global CDN with advanced dynamic caching enables teams to deliver lightning-fast websites while improving developer velocity
  • Proprietary decision engine, powered by machine learning, enables dual web application and API protection (WAAP) to mitigate evolving threats at the edge in real-time
  • Edge Insights allows teams to garner critical analytic insights for Edgio performance and security in one place
  • Point-and-Click Configuration enables easy configuration of Edgio services without developer intervention
  • Unified Console provides actionable insights, deep observability, and centralized alert management for every component of the application platform, all controlled via a single pane of glass
