How we support F5 BIG-IP → Cloudflare after migration

✓Fixed-scope project, senior platform engineers, 2-3 months
✓Your F5 BIG-IP stays under vendor support during migration
✓F5 iRules converted to Cloudflare Workers by our experts
✓Non-HTTP protocol traffic mapped to Cloudflare Spectrum
✓Custom SSL certificates migrated with zero downtime

Expensive F5 Licensing, Limited DDoS Protection

F5 BIG-IP ASM licensing renewals keep climbing. Your CFO is asking why you pay legacy premiums for an edge that can’t absorb modern DDoS attacks.

F5 Hardware Replacement Cycle Pressures You

Your F5 hardware is approaching end-of-life. The next replacement cycle means capital spend, downtime, and re-engineering—unless you move to Cloudflare’s global edge now.

F5 iRules and Legacy Configurations Block Migration

F5 iRules are proprietary and complex. Most teams worry their custom rules, non-HTTP traffic, or hardware SSL certs will break the migration. They don’t have to.

F5 BIG-IP → Cloudflare migration — your questions answered

How do you handle F5 iRules in a Cloudflare migration?+

We assign two senior platform engineers with proven F5-to-Cloudflare migration experience. They handle iRules, WAF policies, DDoS protections, and SSL certificates. Your legacy F5 stays supported throughout.

What is the typical timeline and cost for an F5 to Cloudflare migration?+

Expect 2-3 months for a typical enterprise deployment, with a fixed budget of $25,000–$180,000 depending on complexity. No surprise overruns.

Will I lose support on my F5 during the migration?+

Your F5 BIG-IP stays under vendor support as long as your contract is active. If the renewal lapses, our third-party support covers most operational issues on the legacy platform while you finish the move. No forced cutover.

Can you migrate non-HTTPS traffic from F5 BIG-IP to Cloudflare?+

We map each non-HTTP service to Cloudflare Spectrum, TCP/UDP load balancers, or Cloudflare Tunnel configurations. Our senior engineers audit dependencies first to ensure a complete, secure transition.

Keep Your Edge Security Optimized Post-Migration

After your Cloudflare migration, keep your edge security optimized. Our Managed Cloudflare Edge & WAF Optimization Service monitors, tunes rules, and handles changes. You focus on strategy, we handle the edge.
