Public Cloud LTM features exposed

Hi members, if you had to pick the top-10 features of LTM that a public cloud offering should expose to its users, what would they be? In what order?

    Sorry I didn't reply earlier. This is an awesome question. I'd be curious what options Rackspace is offering. I guess it would depend on the type of cloud offering.

     

     

    Some cool options I can think of:

     

     

    1. Automated provisioning with VMWare

     

    2. I know we're talking LTM, but offering ASM (with the ability to tailor it to customer's app) would be cool.

     

    3. iRules - Obviously tons of customization options.

     

    4. Not sure whether the Quova GeoIP license would allow the GeoIP info to be used in such a manner, but it would be cool.
