PNY Technologies teamed with F5 to strengthen application security for AI data centers.

The partnership will see F5’s Application Delivery and Security Platform (ADSP) offered as part of PNY’s AI Factory line in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA).

ADSP is F5’s flagship platform designed to provide consistent security coverage across apps and APIs spanning the cloud and edge. Unveiled last February, the all-in-one application security offering has since received numerous updates, including AI-focused enhancements, such as identifying vulnerabilities in an enterprise’s large language models.

The security vendor said its PNY partnership will see its flagship platform “support enterprises in their strategic initiatives” across hybrid multicloud and application performance optimization.

“Together, we optimize GPU environments through accelerated data flows and enhanced application security,” Laurent Chapoulaud, PNY’s VP for marketing, explained. “This synergy between infrastructure and intelligent traffic management enables the deployment of AI architectures that are high-performance, resilient, and scalable.”

F5’s collab with PNY comes after it teamed up with NetApp late last year, applying ADSP with intelligent data infrastructure for AI built on the latter’s technology to help enterprises shore up their data delivery needs from impending quantum threats.

Nasser El Abdouli, F5’s regional VP for EMEA channel sales, said this latest partnership “brings together complementary strengths that directly benefit our partners and customers.”

“PNY's longstanding partnership with Nvidia, combined with F5's growing AI-focused application delivery and security offerings, allows us to help partners capably respond to the rapidly increasing demand for secure and scalable AI infrastructure across EMEA," El Abdouli added.
