Aryaka Named a 2013 Emerging Vendor by CRN

MILPITAS, CA--(Marketwired - Aug 12, 2013) - Aryaka®, the leading provider of WAN Optimization as-a-Service, Network as-a-Service and Application Delivery as-a-Service solutions, today announced it has been named a 2013 Emerging Technology vendor by UBM Tech Channel's CRN Magazine. The annual list highlights hot tech startups making an impact on the channel and impression on the tech industry as a whole. These up-and-coming technology vendors have recently introduced a new product or technology that is not only innovative, but generates the high margins solution providers require in today's competitive marketplace.

Aryaka's WAN Optimization as-a-Service solution packages a dedicated core network with built-in diversity and redundancy based on globally distributed Points of Presence (POPs), coupled with cloud-based technology. With Aryaka's multi-segment solution, POPs are located near end-user locations. This translates into far fewer congestion problems in "the middle mile" than Internet VPN solutions, and notably better application performance when congestion occurs at the first or last mile versus an appliance solution. Aryaka also offers a unique customer portal, MyAryaka, to deliver network-wide visibility for WAN connectivity, as well as application performance and usage across the network, providing centralized end-to-end monitoring.

With Aryaka's dedicated, optimized global network, service providers can move beyond the constraints of geography and become global players by delivering accelerated, predictable performance for on-premise as well as public cloud-based services and applications to the company's customer base. Aryaka's Fusion Partner Program enables global and regional service providers to utilize their brand and their own infrastructure assets in conjunction with Aryaka's patented technology. And the Emergence Aryaka Alliance Program™, which is designed to meet the rapidly growing demand for cloud-based delivery of data and applications, continues to add more cloud providers, channel partners, service providers and technology partners, allowing them to capitalize on Aryaka's market leadership and a recurring revenue model.

"Any technology vendor can claim to offer innovative products and groundbreaking technology, but only a select group can truly impact the marketplace with their offerings," said Robert Faletra, CEO, UBM Tech Channel. "The companies named to the 2013 Emerging Vendor list offer solutions that deliver as promised while creating the high margins that solution providers demand. We congratulate all the vendors for their commitment to delivering technological innovations that map to the needs of the dynamic channel market."

"We are honored to be named a CRN Emerging Technology Vendor for the third consecutive year," said Ajit Gupta, president and CEO, Aryaka. "This continued recognition, coupled with the growth of our partner programs, demonstrates the adoption of our cloud-based WAN optimization solution, which offers a recurring revenue model with attractive margins and extended global reach, all while saving their customers time, money and resources."

The vendors that make up the CRN Emerging Technology Vendor list were founded in 2007 or later, and have revenue under $1 billion. To view the list and read the editorial accompaniment visit www.CRN.com starting August 12. The list will also be featured in the August issue of CRN magazine.
