Proven F5 to AWS alb migration from senior engineers
Yes, migrating F5 BIG-IP to AWS Elastic Load Balancing is a well‑understood project. Our senior engineers rewrite iRules, WAF policies, and GTM configs in a fixed‑scope engagement while your legacy platform stays
The lowest-cost way off F5 BIG-IP: our migration tooling automates the repetitive work —you pay senior engineers for judgment, not keystrokes.
How we support F5 BIG-IP → AWS Elastic Load Balancing after migration
- ✓Senior engineers rewrite iRules to ALB rules/Lambda/WAF.
- ✓F5 stays supported by our team during cutover.
- ✓Fixed-scope project – no surprise overruns.
- ✓40–70% savings vs. F5 renewal on legacy platform.
- ✓2–4 month timeline, 2–3 consultants typical.
- ✓24/7 US-based support throughout migration.
iRule migration complexity
Complex TCL iRules can stall cloud migration. Our engineers have deep experience converting custom routing logic to AWS ALB, Lambda, and WAF rules – with no functionality lost.
Skyrocketing F5 licensing
F5 renewal costs keep climbing, but you can’t cut over cold turkey. Keep your F5 supported by our third‑party team during the move – no pressure to pay a full renewal just to buy time.
Forced hardware refresh
F5 hardware end‑of‑life and data center exit mandates create deadlines. Our fixed‑scope projects deliver in 2–4 months with 2–3 consultants. Move on your timeline, not the vendor’s.
F5 BIG-IP → AWS Elastic Load Balancing migration — your questions answered
How do you handle complex F5 iRules?+
We convert your TCL iRules into AWS ALB listener rules, Lambda@Edge functions, or AWS WAF managed rules. Our team has deep experience with complex routing, header manipulation, and Load Balancing logic.
Can you migrate F5 ASM WAF policies to AWS?+
Yes. We map F5 ASM WAF policies to AWS WAF rule groups, including custom rules. Rate-based rules, bot control, and managed rule sets cover most security use cases. We test policy equivalence before cutover.
What about F5 GTM/DNS complex wideip setups?+
We deconstruct GTM wideip configurations – GeoIP, GSLB, health probes – and rebuild them using Route 53 routing policies (Latency, Geolocation, Failover) and AWS Global Accelerator if needed. DNS transition is automated.
How do you handle proprietary F5 health monitors?+
We replace F5 custom health monitors with ALB health checks, Route 53 health checks, and CloudWatch alarms. For non-standard protocols, we use Lambda-based custom health check scripts.
Managed AWS Cloud Networking & WAF
Post-migration, keep your AWS network fully managed. Our Managed AWS Cloud Networking & WAF service monitors traffic, updates WAF rules, and optimizes Elastic Load Balancing. No need to hire in-house cloud networking experts.
