Radware announced FastView, a new Web Performance Optimization (WPO) technology integrated into Radware’s Alteon application delivery controllers (ADC), which significantly accelerates the response time of both Web portals and internal mission-critical applications.
Targeted at e-Commerce, e-Retail, Web portals, online financial services and other online businesses, Radware’s FastView enhances the Alteon platform’s application acceleration capabilities resulting in maximum business impact including more page visits, higher customer loyalty, more returning customers, higher conversion rates, and higher revenues.
Various market studies on Websites of major corporations show that even a one-second faster page response time delivered an average 11 percent more page views per month, 5 percent more revenue, and 4 percent higher customer satisfaction during the same period. FastView delivers WPO best practices out-of-the-box while eliminating the overhead of manually optimizing the application or changing infrastructure to reduce efforts and costs.
Web applications perform significantly faster with FastView starting at the very first page visit. It provides a fast acceleration for Web pages accessed for the first time, as well as for previously visited pages for all users running any browser on any end-user device.
Integrated into Radware’s Alteon ADC, FastView extends the integrated application acceleration capabilities to deliver a unique Web application acceleration solution while enhancing the ADC’s core values and delivering higher solution return on investment. It is a data center-centric solution that doesn’t require any modification to branch offices or end-user devices reducing operational complexity and enabling faster time to market.
Radware also offers an Application Performance Monitoring (APM) module that enables users to monitor end-to-end Web application response time and drill-down to the application, transaction, and transaction stage levels, as well as to the geographic location level. This provides the ability to visualize the performance different users receive in different locations, in real-time, and based on user-defined SLAs. Radware’s APM measures and visualizes the real performance of Web applications as experienced by all users from all locations, including actual data on errors, without the need to write scripts and run synthetic transactions from a limited set of locations, thus providing a complete visibility into Web applications performance while reducing effort and costs.
“Website performance directly impacts an organization’s ability to service its customers and to generate more revenues, which affects a business’s bottom-line. Slow-loading pages and Web page errors are deterrents between the site and visitors, driving business away,” said Avi Chesla, CTO, Radware. “With the launch of FastView and Application Performance Monitoring, we are helping our customers optimize and monitor Web application performance in real-time so they can improve their business performance through faster page loads, a better user experience, and higher search engine rankings -- all leading to more revenue.”
FastView accelerates Web application response time by employing several optimization methods. It optimizes the transport layer via TCP protocol optimization and advanced congestion avoidance optimization algorithms. It also optimizes on-the-fly the Web application code to reduce the number of requests per Web page and the number of server connections through CSS/Java Script objects combining and inlining, and advanced object versioning. In addition, it reduces the transferred content size via removing unnecessary content from Web pages, as well as leveraging dynamic caching mechanisms on both the ADC and on the end-user side.

Like most digital transformation shifts, organizations often prioritize productivity and leave security and observability to keep pace. This usually translates to both the mass implementation of new technology and fragmented monitoring and observability (M&O) tooling. In the era of AI and varied cloud architecture, a disparate observability function can be dangerous. IT teams will lack a complete picture of their IT environment, making it harder to diagnose issues while slowing down mean time to resolve (MTTR). In fact, according to recent data from the SolarWinds State of Monitoring & Observability Report, 77% of IT personnel said the lack of visibility across their on-prem and cloud architecture was an issue ...
In MEAN TIME TO INSIGHT Episode 23, Shamus McGillicuddy, VP of Research, Network Infrastructure and Operations, at EMA discusses the NetOps labor shortage ...
Technology management is evolving, and in turn, so is the scope of FinOps. The FinOps Foundation recently updated their mission statement from "advancing the people who manage the value of cloud" to "advancing the people who manage the value of technology." This seemingly small change solidifies a larger evolution: FinOps practitioners have organically expanded to be focused on more than just cloud cost optimization. Today, FinOps teams are largely — and quickly — expanding their job descriptions, evolving into a critical function for managing the full value of technology ...
Enterprises are under pressure to scale AI quickly. Yet despite considerable investment, adoption continues to stall. One of the most overlooked reasons is vendor sprawl ... In reality, no organization deliberately sets out to create sprawling vendor ecosystems. More often, complexity accumulates over time through well-intentioned initiatives, such as enterprise-wide digital transformation efforts, point solutions, or decentralized sourcing strategies ...
Nearly every conversation about AI eventually circles back to compute. GPUs dominate the headlines while cloud platforms compete for workloads and model benchmarks drive investment decisions. But underneath that noise, a quieter infrastructure challenge is taking shape. The real bottleneck in enterprise AI is not processing power, it is the ability to store, manage and retrieve the relentless volumes of data that AI systems generate, consume and multiply ...
The 2026 Observability Survey from Grafana Labs paints a vivid picture of an industry maturing fast, where AI is welcomed with careful conditions, SaaS economics are reshaping spending decisions, complexity remains a defining challenge, and open standards continue to underpin it all ...
The observability industry has an evolving relationship with AI. We're not skeptics, but it's clear that trust in AI must be earned ... In Grafana Labs' annual Observability Survey, 92% said they see real value in AI surfacing anomalies before they cause downtime. Another 91% endorsed AI for forecasting and root cause analysis. So while the demand is there, customers need it to be trustworthy, as the survey also found that the practitioners most enthusiastic about AI are also the most insistent on explainability ...
In the modern enterprise, the conversation around AI has moved past skepticism toward a stage of active adoption. According to our 2026 State of IT Trends Report: The Human Side of Autonomous AI, nearly 90% of IT professionals view AI as a net positive, and this optimism is well-founded. We are seeing agentic AI move beyond simple automation to actively streamlining complex data insights and eliminating the manual toil that has long hindered innovation. However, as we integrate these autonomous agents into our ecosystems, the fundamental DNA of the IT role is evolving ...
AI workloads require an enormous amount of computing power ... What's also becoming abundantly clear is just how quickly AI's computing needs are leading to enterprise systems failure. According to Cockroach Labs' State of AI Infrastructure 2026 report, enterprise systems are much closer to failure than their organizations realize. The report ... suggests AI scale could cause widespread failures in as little as one year — making it a clear risk for business performance and reliability.
The quietest week your engineering team has ever had might also be its best. No alarms going off. No escalations. No frantic Teams or Slack threads at 2 a.m. Everything humming along exactly as it should. And somewhere in a leadership meeting, someone looks at the metrics dashboard, sees a flat line of incidents and says: "Seems like things are pretty calm over there. Do we really need all those people?" ... I've spent many years in engineering, and this pattern keeps repeating ...
