Best SD-WAN Product and Solution Network Transformation Awards

Good Tidings from Across the Pond –

Aryaka Takes Network Transformation Awards Best SD-WAN Product and Solution and Ranks #3 in Latest HIS Markit SD-WAN Report

We’re honored to be selected by Layer123 as the best SD-WAN product and solution.  The Network Transformation Awards, presented at The Hague, recognize industry leaders across 5G, open networking, new service innovations, and SD-WAN, with 2019 winners including Verizon, Colt, ZTE, and Intel.  Unlike some awards in our space, this one in particular is not pay-to-play.  So, congrats to all!

The award acknowledges the work we’ve done in delivering a global managed SD-WAN service that integrates connectivity, the cloud, security, and application acceleration in a OPEX-driven cloud consumption model.   Recent Aryaka wins in EMEA include Coats, HMS Host, and TUV Rhineland.

Around the same time, HIS Markit released their latest SD-WAN market size report, with Aryaka in 3^rd place, just behind VMware and Cisco.  Given the relative size of the two leaders, we have nothing to be disappointed about!  The report captured a 23% growth for SD-WAN during 2019 Q2 on the back of large enterprise deployments and router replacements.  As Josh Bancroft of HIS Market stated, “it has become apparent that most recognize SD-WAN as a mainstream technology.”   Our sentiments exactly!

The report also predicts total SD-WAN vendor revenue of $4.4 billion by 2023. Note that the report attempts to capture vendor revenue, an indirect approximation in our case since we supply our technology as part of a managed service.
