F5OS modules Ansible collection¶
F5OS is the operating system for F5 VELOS and F5 rSeries platforms. The VELOS platform is the next generation of F5’s industry-leading chassis-based systems, which deliver unprecedented performance and scalability in a single Application Delivery Controller (ADC). The next-generation Application Delivery Controller (ADC) solution, F5 rSeries, bridges the gap between traditional and modern infrastructures with a rearchitected, API-first platform designed to meet the needs of your traditional and emerging applications.
F5 VELOS and F5 rSeries rely on a Kubernetes-based platform layer (F5OS) that is tightly integrated with F5’s Traffic Management Operating System (TMOS) software, aligning with your modern architecture plans. This new microservices platform layer powers the next-generation of BIG-IP software, BIG-IP Next, which is built to offer greater automatability, scalability, and ease-of-use for organizations running applications on-premises, in the cloud, or at the edge.
F5OS Ansible collection for F5 VELOS and F5 rSeries helps in automating configuration and interaction with various services provided by F5 VELOS platform and F5 rSeries appliances.
For more information, see F5 VELOS and VELOS Overview or F5 rSeries and F5 rSeries Overview.
