F5OS Resources for Terraform¶
Welcome to the F5OS Resources for Terraform User Guide. The F5OS is the operating system for F5 VELOS and F5 rSeries.
The VELOS platform is the next generation of F5’s industry-leading chassis-based systems, which delivers 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 re-architected, 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 (limited access coming soon), 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 Terraform provider for F5 VELOS and F5 rSeries helps you automate configurations and interactions with various services provided by F5 VELOS platform and F5 rSeries appliances. F5OS Terraform provider is open source and available on GitHub.
