Deliver a classic application
A classic application in the NetScaler App Delivery and Security service – NetScaler managed (NetScaler App Delivery and Security) service offers granular control over the configuration as compared to a modern application and is recommended for advanced NetScaler users.
Use the classic application workflow in the NetScaler App Delivery and Security service if:
- You are an existing NetScaler on-premises customer with a substantial investment in existing ADC configurations.
- Interested to move to the Cloud but prefer to have the familiar configuration experience as the NetScaler on-premises product.
The NetScaler App Delivery and Security service offers two options:
- Create an application from scratch using the ADC configuration model. Recommended if you are familiar with ADC configurations and want to create similar configurations in the Cloud.
- Migrate an existing ADC configuration to the Cloud. Recommended if you have a stable configuration that has been working well for a long time and you want to move the configuration as is to the NetScaler App Delivery and Security service.
To create an application from scratch, see Create a classic application.
To migrate an ADC configuration, see Migrate the ADC configuration to the NetScaler App Delivery and Security service.
For a simplified, streamlined experience and when you don’t have an ADC configuration, use the modern application. For more information, see Deliver a modern application.
