The product is scalable. I rate the scalability a nine out of ten.
View full review »It's scalable. Mostly, what I would look into is having cloud resiliency in the sense that we want multiple vendors, so if something happens with AWS, you'll need some sort of strategy and you'll need some other vendor to provide you with similar services.
We have a number of users per application. It's hard to quantify how many users are on the solution in general.
View full review »We are very happy about the product’s scalability. We did not face any issues. My organization is an enterprise.

The tool is highly scalable. Almost all AWS products are highly scalable. I am the only user in my organization. The solution is running regularly. We check the logs whenever we have some issues. We do not include it in our security management system. It's a very small application. We use it to manage some documents.
View full review »The product is highly scalable and highly available. I rate the scalability a nine out of ten. We have deployed three applications. We have two administrators for our infrastructure. The number of users varies according to our customers. We provide the user interface to our customers.
View full review »Since we are AWS-native, it's very scalable. It can handle almost any infrastructure running within the AWS public cloud. We have around 20 portals, and about 20 products usually use AWS WAF. I'll say that about 15 people use AWS WAF to manage the traffic and filter out security issues. Those people are security analysts, SOC analysts, and layer 1 network analysts.
I would rate the scalability a nine out of ten. There is room for improvement.

My company doesn't rely on AWS WAF's scalability since it's a tool that is totally on the cloud. If the tool goes down by any chance, AWS provides the solution on the steps that need to be taken.
Around 30 employees in my company use AWS WAF.
The product is not extensively used in my company.
My company has no plans to increase the number of users of AWS WAF. If our client wants to increase the number of users, we need to act on the server.

I would rate the scalability of AWS WAF an eight out of ten. All requests, about 100,000 per month, go through the AWS App, ensuring the entire infrastructure is compliant with it. We use it 24/7.

Physical Designer at Semtech Corporation
I definitely see places where it can be more designed to scale. In addition to amazon resources, there is some stuff from other vendors that we wanted to protect. WAF was not a solution for us because we don't have a way to integrate with those things. That was the biggest challenge that we faced. In terms of the number of users, our end users could be in the thousands.
View full review »In our IT organization, the usage of AWS varies by project, with approximately 50-60% of projects using AWS or Cloudflare. For our internal websites like BroadWorks.com, we use Cloudflare, while for client projects, about 60-70% make use of AWS WAF.

It is easy to scale. Just ensure that you cover the relevant resources within it. You can cover multiple resources such as CDN or use them in your AOD.
It's quite scalable.

Scalability is one of the features. It has to be scalable to be able to effectively secure the system.

It is scalable in my experience, but the lack of features doesn't take it very far in terms of actual usage. Eventually, customers will move away from it. If there's no one interested in managing the WAF, that's fine, then customers may keep using it. But for us, we are not planning to scale it out further.

Up to now, the scalability has been good.
View full review »Since we're talking more about the cloud version of the web application firewall, it's highly scalable. When I say scaling, there is a concept called auto-scaling wherein which you can scale up and scale down according to your amount of traffic load. It's automated, so it's highly scalable, actually.
While any company can use AWS, we see a lot of medium-sized firms using this particular solution, as opposed to larger companies, as those have already their own vendors which are already in the on-premises data centers environment.
