Why each option
Cisco FTDv offers advanced next-generation firewall (NGFW) capabilities, including robust URL filtering, which is a feature not natively available in the traditional Cisco ASAv.
Both Cisco FTDv and Cisco ASAv are virtual appliances that can run on VMware ESXi and other virtualization platforms.
Both FTDv and ASAv come in various performance tiers, and 1GB of firewall throughput is a performance metric, not a differentiating feature exclusive to FTDv over ASAv, as ASAv models can also achieve or exceed this throughput.
Cisco FTDv (Firepower Threat Defense Virtual) integrates next-generation firewall (NGFW) services, including URL filtering, application visibility and control (AVC), and intrusion prevention system (IPS) capabilities, which are beyond the traditional firewall features of Cisco ASAv.
Both Cisco FTDv and Cisco ASAv are available for deployment on public cloud platforms like AWS.
