Building and operating your firewall deployments in Azure is now significantly more simple with the availability of Panorama Orchestrated VM-Series Firewall Deployments in Azure. This time-saving workflow feature eliminates the need to manage complex templates for firewall deployments in Azure, which allows you to rapidly deploy, manage, scale, and monitor VM-Series virtual firewalls in your Azure environment with just a few clicks in Panorama.
We’re excited about this development because, until now, you had to use multiple templates to deploy an Azure load balancer to scale and load balance traffic across the stack of firewalls in your hub VNET. In addition to slowing deployment times, these template-based solutions are prone to user error because they are complex to operate and involve multiple components and moving parts.
Speed and Ease Are Critical for Effective Cloud Network Security
Our Azure customers rely on Palo Alto Networks VM-Series virtual firewalls to augment native public cloud network security controls with next-generation threat protection capabilities. Speed of deployment and ease of use is critical, because VM-Series firewalls prevent exploits, malware, and previously unknown threats from compromising applications. These virtualized NGFWs prevent threats from moving laterally between workloads and stop data in your Azure networks from being exfiltrated. Plus, Palo Alto Networks Panorama network security management enables you to centrally manage and maintain consistent policies across VM-Series firewalls.
A Single Workflow Speeds Deployment and Operation
The Panorama Orchestrated VM-Series deployment feature offers a simpler alternative to template-based deployment and integration. It consolidates all configuration tasks into a single workflow and removes the complex aspects of deploying, scaling, and provisioning VM-Series in your Azure environment.
