“Next-generation cloud providers, mobility operators and enterprises demand more visibility into their global networks in order to maintain quality of service across virtualization, application and service delivery,” said Errol Ginsberg, Ixia Chairman and Acting CEO. “The acquisition of Net Optics solidifies our position as a market leader with a comprehensive product offering including network packet brokers, comprehensive physical and virtual taps and application aware capabilities. Additionally, the acquisition strengthens our service provider customer base, increases our footprint in the enterprise, and broadens our sales channel and partner programs.”
Enterprise and service provider customers require an always-on user experience with a network that is designed for speed, scalability, agility and security as well as the ability to provide visibility into virtualized environments. With the combination of Ixia and Net Optics solutions, enterprises and service providers can look to Ixia as a single vendor that can meet all of these pressing needs.
“The combined Ixia and Net Optics technology and capabilities will create a very compelling value proposition for enterprises and service providers around the world,” said Eldad Matityahu, Net Optics Founder and Chairman. “Ixia will offer visibility solutions that will address the full network, and I am very excited about the opportunities that the acquisition will create for our customers, partners and employees.”
With the acquisition, Ixia will be able to leverage Net Optics’ industry-leading active monitoring capabilities with their patented inline and bypass technologies, which go beyond passive network monitoring to deliver high availability of security and monitoring tools.
