Trust your F5 to Fastly migration to proven engineers
Yes, you can migrate F5 BIG‑IP to Fastly without risk. Our senior engineers translate your L7 rules, ASM policies, and iRules to Fastly’s Next‑Gen WAF and VCL/Compute—on a 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 → Fastly after migration
- ✓Your F5 iRules translated to Fastly VCL or Compute.
- ✓F5 ASM policies mapped to Next-Gen WAF rules.
- ✓Vendor support stays active during your migration.
- ✓Fixed scope: 2–4 months, 2–3 senior engineers.
- ✓Post-migration Managed Fastly CDN & WAF services.
Session state complexity
F5 APM user session stores can complicate a move. We design equivalent Fastly edge logic to maintain session continuity.
Hardware SSL dependencies
Highly specific hardware SSL decryption setups don’t translate directly. Our engineers re‑architect your TLS termination on Fastly’s edge without performance loss.
WAF policy migration
F5 ASM policies built over years must be recreated in Fastly’s Next‑Gen WAF without gaps. We map each rule and test for parity.
F5 BIG-IP → Fastly migration — your questions answered
How do you migrate F5 iRules to Fastly VCL?+
Yes. We first audit your F5 configuration (L7 traffic rules, ASM policies, iRules) and build an equivalent in Fastly’s Next-Gen WAF and VCL/Compute. A migration plan defines the order and dependencies.
Will I lose F5 support during the migration?+
No. Your existing F5 vendor contract remains active throughout the project. You only cut over to Fastly when you choose. If your F5 renewal lapses after the move, our third‑party support covers most operational issues (not vendor patches) on the legacy platform.
Why should I move from F5 BIG‑IP to Fastly?+
Fastly offers sub‑second cache purge times and edge programmability that F5 hardware cannot match. You also avoid F5 EOL milestones and data‑center shutdowns.
How long does a typical F5 to Fastly migration take?+
Typically two to four months with two to three senior platform engineers. Budget ranges from $35,000 to $270,000 depending on configuration complexity.
Migrate on your terms—not the vendor's
Let our senior engineers handle your F5 to Fastly migration. We translate your L7 rules, ASM policies, and iRules—while your existing F5 support stays in place. No forced cutover. No dropped coverage. Fixed scope, predictable budget. Move on your timeline. After Fastly goes live, keep the performance edge with our Managed Fastly CDN & Next-Gen WAF Configuration Services.
