Your Proven Path for F5 to Azure App Gateway Migration
Yes, migrating F5 BIG-IP to Azure Application Gateway is a well-understood project. We map your Layer 7 routing and iRules to native Azure rules and Functions. Zero downtime. Fixed scope.
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 → Azure Application Gateway after migration
- ✓Map complex iRules to Azure Functions & native rules.
- ✓F5 BIG-IP stays under vendor support during cutover.
- ✓Zero-downtime migration, validated in your test environment.
- ✓Senior platform engineers, 2–3 consultants on your project.
- ✓Consolidate cloud networking with Azure Application Gateway & WAF.
Complex iRules with TCL logic
Your custom F5 iRules carry years of Application routing logic. We translate each rule to Azure Functions and native rules, tested before cutover.
F5 ASM policies and local traffic policies
We migrate your ASM WAF policies and local traffic policies to Azure WAF with matching protection tiers.
F5 proprietary authentication profiles
We re-map your F5 authentication profiles to Azure-native identity integration so your apps keep working.
F5 BIG-IP → Azure Application Gateway migration — your questions answered
What happens to my F5 support during the migration?+
Your F5 vendor contract stays active — the legacy platform remains under vendor support for the duration of the migration. If your renewal lapses before the move completes, our third-party support covers most operational issues on F5 BIG-IP (it is not vendor support and does not include vendor patches).
Will Azure App Gateway handle my iRules?+
Yes. We map your TCL iRules to Azure Functions and Application Gateway native rewrite/redirect rules. Advanced logic is tested in your environment before cutover.
How do you avoid downtime during cutover?+
We migrate traffic gradually using Azure Traffic Manager or your existing load balancer. The F5 stays live until the new Azure setup passes all validation.
Do you help with F5 licensing or renewal decisions?+
We do not advise on licensing strategy. We can support F5 BIG-IP during the migration window so you avoid paying F5 for short-term renewals while you complete the move to Azure.
