Delhi / Bangalore, India - May 8, 2014
A10 Networks
(NYSE:ATEN), a technology leader in application networking, today
announced that PreCise MRM, one of the leading suppliers of GPS-based
fleet management solutions in North America, selected
A10's vThunder virtual appliance because of its comprehensive ADC features, scalability, and price / performance.
PreCise
MRM's network infrastructure supports hundreds of customers
encompassing thousands of active GPS/AVL devices in the field, including
those involved in snow and ice removal. Parent company FORCE America
offers electronic spreader controllers integrated with PreCise GPS
devices and software to provide a leading-edge technology that handles
many types of critical situations, coast to coast.
Snow
storms place a strain on networks by potentially creating bottlenecks
that could impact critical winter operations activities. By balancing
traffic across available resources, PreCise can more efficiently
distribute workloads across numerous computing resources-minimizing
response time and avoiding overload on any one resource.
IT
teams from both FORCE America and PreCise spent several months
evaluating vendors. Their requirements included a solution that
performed well while supporting existing applications, scalability for
future needs, and excellent price/performance. The teams selected A10's
vThunder due to the benefits of rapid deployment (vThunder images
allowed download and fast deployment to virtualized infrastructure),
high-performance without feature limitations, and dynamic
provisioning/operation.
"A10's vThunder solution saved us a lot of time and money," said Mr.Michael Schlag, Product Manager for PreCise MRM. "We
were really impressed with the company's response time and A10's
vThunder worked right out of the box. Putting in this virtual appliance
was a very quick way to do a proof of concept and we can now effectively
load balance incoming and outgoing traffic which utilizes multiple
communication protocols. My only regret is not giving A10 a chance
sooner."
FORCE America is exhibiting at the APWA North American Snow Conference, May 4-7, in Cincinnati.
