KUALA LUMPUR, July 2 (Bernama) -- Aryaka, the leading global SD-WAN provider has been selected by Makino to adopt its SD-WAN as-a-Service to respond to customers faster and enable their cloud migration.
Based in Japan, Makino is a global leader in metal-cutting and manufacturing technology, serving hundreds of customers in the aerospace, automotive and construction industries.
After relying on legacy VPN and MPLS solutions for years, Makino chose to upgrade its network to align to key digital transformation initiatives, a statement said on Friday.
Makino significantly will improve speed and performance of international data transfer and synchronization and use more cloud applications.
The manufacturer will also deliver better voice and video communications for customers and partners.
IT Infrastructure Manager at Makino, Glenn Hensley said with previous network, it would take between six to seven hours daily to synch up connections between two locations. While with Aryaka´s global SD-WAN solution, it takes just 20 minutes to complete the same task.
He added with Aryaka, Makino is able to get twice the bandwidth for the same cost coupled with a very rapid deployment cycle.
Next year, Makino is shifting to use applications that are 90 per cent cloud-based, so it was important to deploy Aryaka as the foundation for this migration to the cloud.
Chief Executive Officer at Aryaka, John Peters said: "Aryaka´s SD-WAN optimizes global network connectivity and enables digital transformation for these businesses as they move towards cloud-based applications and industrial IoT."
