Web App Security & Performance

Protect Your Apps & APIs Across
Any Infrastructure

Multi layered security illustration

Maximize security + reliability

Increase service reliability by routing to multiple backends in public/private clouds. Improve security with multiple layers of controls — DDoS, WAF, bot detection and API protection. You can also enable our AI-based engine to automatically discover and control APIs.

Auto updating cloud and app infrastructure illustration

Dramatic operational simplification

VoltMesh can be configured entirely in our network and as a distributed load balancer in your cloud clusters. This dramatically simplifies ops as policy changes get instantly deployed in your cloud and across our network.

Properly set up cloud deployment illustration

Improve customer engagement

Our global app delivery network reduces latency for your web apps and APIs -- helping convert and retain more customers. VoltMesh nodes in your cloud sites create redundant tunnels to our network for optimal and high performance routing.

Consistent global experience

We help securely deliver your apps globally with the ability to selectively control or rate limit traffic from each geography. We terminate your users at our closest network location and apply security policies before the traffic can enter our network.

Solution Overview

Volterra delivers web application and API protection (WAAP) to protect against advanced DDoS and L4-L7+ attacks to customer applications deployed in the cloud or at edge sites. Our SaaS-based service delivers a single pane of glass for network, app, and API security to simplify operations. Customers also get a choice of deploying VoltMesh nodes in their app clusters in public/private cloud to distribute the load balancing functionality across our network and cloud. This can significantly improve web app performance by maintaining persistent and active-active connections across our global network.
