Netscaler has no place in the cloud space. New apps are using ELB on Amazon. For east-west traffic Avi is killing legacy players. Born in the cloud will eat "lift/shift with fake cloud messaging" for lunch!
Similarly, the XA/XD guys are lost. Engineering leaders will get fired for making mistakes and then declaring victory for doing lift/shift!
Juan Rivera Retweeted Carl Stalhood:
When we designed the XA/XD service architecture, we made sure we would not leave our customers behind. Not repeating the IMA/FMA debacle. This model allows tools like this one to exist, easing the transition to the cloud. #CitrixCloud #XenApp #XenDesktop
