Story
Inside Trip.com Group, application delivery used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in consumer discretionary groups working out of China. Network and app owners needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
Trip.com Group uses Shape Security from F5 as the working layer for application traffic. F5 provides application delivery, security, and traffic management products used in front of enterprise applications. The practical change is simple: application delivery has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What Trip.com Group gets from F5 is a durable place to run application delivery and a way for network and app owners to see the same application traffic at the same time.
