Advanced automation and powerful traffic controls have improved application security
HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 support is something that definitely could be improved in F5 BIG-IP [Private Offer Only]. I mean HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 protocol support, as well as security for them too. For F5 BIG-IP [Private Offer Only] to have better support for them would include load balancing, but also better WAF (Web Application Firewall) support for these two protocols. Improving the mentioned HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 support and the GUI would be beneficial. If they improve those things and add machine learning and AI, I want it to have some kind of AI on the box because everyone is going to AI, and they have to add some AI security to be able to check the traffic using AI models. HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 protocol support, AI, the GUI to be changed, and inline AI where the device downloads pre-built AI models from a SaaS cloud to check the traffic for security is something I think is very needed because using AI models as a replacement for signatures will be better. I think WAF signatures are a thing of the past. I would also like to see HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 in the future as additional features, and anything else I would improve would definitely include HTTP/2 and HTTP/3.

Monitoring has improved latency analysis and now supports precise root cause detection
I believe New Relic Solutions [Private Offer Only] needs to work on AI anomaly detection and reduce false positive alerts through the context threshold. Regarding dependency visibility and root cause analysis, New Relic Solutions [Private Offer Only] should be able to detect single points of failure and cascading failures instead of allowing users to perform tracing activity manually. This would be beneficial because maximum time goes into manual tracing activities. Additionally, New Relic Solutions [Private Offer Only] should help us identify if there are thread pools and connection pools in performance optimization, as pool data visibility enables us to determine whether we need to increase the pool size or connection size.
