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.

The learning curve part could be improved. Once you start using Tableau [Private Offer Only], you do not have a problem, but if you are new, that aspect hits you immediately and confuses you. Additionally, if natural language processing were incorporated, it would make life easier for users looking to quickly get insights from their data. Currently, I am linking KNIME and Tableau [Private Offer Only] because there are many things you can do easily with KNIME, and Tableau Prep could be better. Tableau [Private Offer Only] Prep does impact data readiness, but it is difficult to train others using it compared to using KNIME for data cleansing. It is good if you know what you are doing. I believe the focus should be on improving the AI side of Tableau [Private Offer Only] so I can load my data dictionary and business glossary for better assistance in my analyses. The learning curve for data cleansing is not ideal as it could be. People new to Tableau [Private Offer Only] often confuse dimensions and measures, which could be simplified through explanations or even tooltips.
