Application delivery controller (ADC) specialist A10 Networks has surged into the UK channel and has claimed its technology can be more than five times cheaper than larger rivals.
The vendor recently opened the doors on its first UK office and has inked a distribution deal with VADition. The company is eager to lock horns in this country with competitors including Cisco, F5 Networks and Citrix.
