The Business Intelligence Group today announced that it has awarded Array Networks Inc., the network functions platform company, a 2017 Stratus Award in their annual contest. The organization sought to identify the companies, products and people that are offering unique solutions that enable the adoption of cloud technologies.
Many CSP, MSP and IaaS data centers continue to grow – in both complexity and expectations – while networking and security professionals are looking for ways to gain agility through software-centric approaches. However, many organizations still rely on hardware to meet the requirements of business-critical operations and they are faced with a difficult decision of choosing agility or performance.
Array Networks provides an innovative approach to eliminate this agility vs. performance trade-off. Array’s AVX Series Network Functions Platform combines the best attributes of dedicated hardware, virtualization and software-centric computing to create an environment that provides guaranteed performance for virtual networking and security functions. In other words, Array is enabling agility-at-scale.
“Congratulations to the entire Array Networks team for helping accelerate adoption of the cloud and for working to make all of our lives a little richer,” said Russ Fordyce, Managing Director of the Business Intelligence Group. “The cloud is dominating the technology industry and we do not see any markers for that trend not continuing.”
“We are honored to win the Infrastructure-as-a-Service category for second consecutive year,” said Paul Andersen, Sr. Director of Marketing at Array Networks. “Our team has worked hard to develop a solution that addresses crucial pain points for the networking community, including MSPs, CSPs, IaaS providers, data center operators and more, and they deserve this recognition for their dedication.”
