FatPipe Participates in ONUG's First Multivendor Proof of Concept Based on Real IT User Requirements


SALT LAKE CITY, UT and NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - November 05, 2015) - FatPipe Networks today showcased a Multivendor Proof of Concept (PoC) as a part of ONUG's the first ever SD-WAN workgroup PoC Demonstration at ONUG Fall 2015. Based on ONUG's original use case requirements, the demonstrations mark the completion of ONUG's first full cycle of its working groups -- from original use case requirements to true product development. The ONUG PoC demonstration fair brings to life the growing software-defined infrastructure ecosystem and buildout of a new open framework.

"We were thrilled to see that so many members of the ONUG vendor community, like FatPipe Networks, are engaging with users to develop multivendor interoperable PoCs based directly on user-mandated requirements," said Nick Lippis, Co-Chairman and Co-Founder of ONUG. "This illustrates a major step forward in ONUG's mission to facilitate collaboration between the IT user and vendor communities aimed at driving the development of open interoperable hardware and software-defined infrastructure solutions."

"As the #1 company in SD-WAN, we were happy to be a part of ONUG's demonstrations," added Dr. Ragula Bhaskar, President and CEO of FatPipe Networks. "We appreciate ONUG bringing attention to the software-defined hybrid WAN market we have been pioneering and evangelizing for the past decade. We were thrilled to show the ONUG community a typical enterprise network in which we are deployed."
