A10 Thunder Containers High-performance NFV Solutions Win Grand Prize in NFV/SDI Category

A10 Networks Thunder Containers is a cloud-native, light-weight set of container-based solutions for secure application services, offering A10 Thunder Application Delivery Controller (ADC), A10 Thunder Carrier-grade Networking (CGN) and A10 Thunder Convergent Firewall (CFW) in container environments. It offers the industry's highest performing container solutions with up to 200 Gbps of throughput. They are the industry's first container-based solutions for carrier-grade NAT (CGNAT) products, supporting migration to container environments in preparation for 5G commercialization by communications service providers. Thunder Containers is also supported with Kubernetes.

The judging committee explained the reasons for awarding the Grand Prize in the NFV/SDI category: "The prize was in recognition of the quick achievement of operational flexibility required by 5G, which includes the sophistication of containerizing ADC and CGN solutions that are already in wide use, and the ability to offer CGN/IPv6 solutions in container environments."
