Aryaka announced TMC has named Aryaka a winner of the Cloud Computing Excellence Award as one of the companies that most effectively completes the cloud story by providing the 'network' in the cloud.

"The cloud delivery model has fueled a competitive spirit within the vendor, developer and provider communities that has resulted in a wave of new products, services and applications being introduced at an unprecedented rate," said Erik Linask, Group Editorial Director at TMC. "I am pleased to recognize Aryaka as one of the companies that have exemplified innovation and excellence in the market by leveraging the latest technology trends to create an enriched user experience."

Using Aryaka's WAN optimization and application acceleration service, enterprises can provide optimized access for all their locations and users to cloud services worldwide, irrespective of the application, type of infrastructure or data center location. Aryaka has multiple Points of Presence (POPs) across the world connected by a dedicated, secure and highly redundant network. This optimized network helps bring together the new WAN, enabling companies to reach Cloud Services including simple data storage in the cloud, a customized instance of Oracle on-Demand hosted in multiple data centers as well as Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Office 365.

"Being recognized by TMC is an honor that reflects our ongoing dedication to providing an optimized network in the cloud enabling customers to deliver an exceptional online experience and drive value to their businesses," said Ajit Gupta, Founder, President and CEO of Aryaka. "Aryaka significantly alleviates latency fluctuations and inherent inefficiencies when accessing cloud services across the Internet. The optimized Aryaka network can be compared to driving on a high-speed expressway instead of a potholed, congested dirt road, otherwise known as the public Internet."
