About Modern Apps APIs

Modern Apps provides an outcome-focused model that allows the user to specify the functional and business intent of application deployment. Based on the specified functional intent, the feature creates policies to configure functionalities, such as security protection, load balancing, SSL offloading and content rules. For example, the user can select A+ profile and the feature configures the ciphers and other entities required to get an A+ rating from Qualys Labs for your applications.

The service also simplifies the infrastructure deployment by orchestrating NetScaler provisioning on public clouds. It continuously monitors the deployment and optimizes the capacity dynamically to match the application’s needs by autoscaling the NetScalers.

Discovery-driven configuration aims to automate and simplify the laborious process of application delivery, by discovering origin application servers automatically using APIs. For example, when specifying the application servers, the user can specify the application AWS autoscale group or Azure VMSS. The service continuously maps these IDs to their corresponding IP addresses and discovers new IP addresses used by the application, or removes IP addresses that are no longer part of the server pool.

After delivering the applications, the user can use the rich analytics in NetScaler Console to:

• Monitor application performance.
• Troubleshoot using the detected anomalies.
• Visualize the threat details associated with security and take corrective actions to secure the applications.
