"We congratulate you on this distinction and the enormous contribution you've made to business, technology and society."

"All of us at Aryaka are honored to be recognized by the GigaOm editors as this further validates the market of WAN optimization and application acceleration as a service using a cloud-based model," said Ajit Gupta, CEO, Aryaka Networks. "This distinction underscores how speeding cloud application delivery for globally distributed enterprises is redefining the playing field for network optimization.

Aryaka takes what has traditionally been a hardware solution and converts it into a cloud-based service along with the underlying dedicated network and global visibility. Enterprises are assured of carrier-grade reliability and guaranteed service level agreements (SLAs), along with customizable quality of service (QoS), scalability, reliability, high performance, network availability, and redundancy unmatched by others in the industry.
