Two former Internet Solutions innovation managers have brought the WAN optimization service Aryaka to South Africa.

Some of the most recognizable networking companies in the world are trying to break down the barrier to business in China, with the aim of capitalizing on the lucrative opportunity as the most populated country in the world starts looking to upgrade its IT.

Aryaka has achieved phenomenal growth over the past few years by converging multi-billion dollar enterprise networking markets, including MPLS, WAN Optimization, content and application delivery, and cloud acceleration.

A study reveals that bandwidth demand is on the rise globally, and that the software and manufacturing industries are the main drivers behind the increase.

This global freight company deployed a SaaS-based WAN and achieved speed increases as great as 300 percent and compression rates up to 95 times higher.

The internet is a delivery device and a bottleneck and it’s holding back the growth of cloud says Ajit Gupta. So what’s the solution?

When Aryaka was founded in 2009, cloud computing was just beginning to pick up momentum within the enterprise. Yet, Aryaka saw a major opportunity to disrupt the business class networking space.

Cloud computing has come of age, and we’re entering a new period of activity; one that isn’t necessarily public. Drew Turney deconstructs the movement’s new groove.

Aryaka, one of a gaggle of startups pursuing software-defined WAN (SD WAN) or “cloud WAN” services, announced Monday that it has closed $16 million in funding, bringing its total funding to $97 million.

Aryaka is looking like another long journey for Mr. Gupta. Aryaka investors this week put another $16 million into the company, taking total funding to about $75 million, and Mr. Gupta said it’s “a multibillion-dollar company in the making.”

The Best Practices Awards are presented each year to companies that are predicted to encourage significant growth in their industries, and have identified emerging trends before they became the standard in the marketplace, and have created advanced technologies that will catalyze and transform industries in the near future.

Frost & Sullivan recognizes Aryaka with the 2015 Global Frost & Sullivan Award for Customer Value Leadership in Network Optimization Solutions for providing a versatile and flexible product line that allows enterprises across verticals to address their internal and external network connectivity challenges.
