Prisma SASE App Acceleration

Up to 5× faster than direct-to-internet—without code changes

Prisma SASE App Acceleration, from Palo Alto Networks, improves application performance for modern, cloud-first workforces by reducing latency and optimizing throughput—while preserving full Zero Trust security.

The next frontier in optimized user experiences

Poor connectivity, cloud latency, and dynamic content slow down critical applications and impact productivity. Prisma SASE App Acceleration reduces application latency and increases performance by up to 5×, with no application or infrastructure changes required.

Built natively into Prisma SASE, App Acceleration eliminates the traditional trade-off between performance and security.

Cloud Acceleration - Computing the future for immediate content delivery

Cloud Acceleration

Computing the future for immediate content delivery

Prisma SASE App Acceleration understands how users interact with applications and predicts their next actions. It pre-computes and pre-fetches dynamic content—running it through Prisma SASE security inspection before the user ever clicks.

When the request is made, content is already prepared, inspected, and delivered instantly.

Enhanced Throughput

Enhanced Throughput

Addressing poor performance from changing network conditions

App Acceleration dynamically tunes TCP behavior and packet flow per session, continuously adapting to real-world conditions such as:

  • Packet loss
  • Jitter
  • Wireless interference
  • Variable home or mobile networks

By accounting for device, network, and application context in real time, App Acceleration maximizes throughput without overwhelming the client.
