About

Akamai Prolexic is a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) protection platform designed to defend cloud, on-premises, and hybrid infrastructure against large-scale network attacks. It can be deployed as an always-on or on-demand cloud service, as an on-premises solution powered by Corero, or as a hybrid combination of both approaches. Prolexic routes incoming traffic through its protection infrastructure, inspects it for attacks, filters malicious traffic, and delivers legitimate traffic to protected systems. The service operates across 32 global anycast scrubbing centers with more than 20 Tbps of dedicated DDoS defense capacity, supported by Akamai's network with more than 1 Pbps of capacity. Prolexic provides a 100% platform availability SLA, a zero-second mitigation SLA, dynamic IPv4 and IPv6 mitigation controls, network-wide ACL and firewall rules, and 24/7/365 support.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • It's simple, fast and rock solid. I'm old school admin so I like that green-blue-orange-red ideology. Of course price/quality ratio is superior :)
  • Can't get any simpler than that. The entire platform designed for safety. And if a particular feature is not present, just look for it among the available addons.

Cons

  • Its one of a kind so there is a learning curve that you must walk trough before you can really use it. WebUI isn't always so practical and sometimes menu stops responding to mouse but that can be passed simply reloading the page.
  • Nothing negative, everything perfect from the assistance system provided by the very present and active community.
