“After working with Amir and Atif at Viptela, we welcome the opportunity to work with their new company, Alkira. After finding that network operations and security teams at many enterprises struggle with configuring and running hybrid service connections, Alkira has built a service addressing that pain. Alkira will provide much-needed agility to businesses as they move to the public clouds and do so quickly in order to adapt to today’s rapidly changing business environment.”

“ Networking for the multi-cloud era requires a different approach, and in today’s climate, remote work is breeding a sense of urgency for a unified solution, Alkira’s team has the ambitious vision to disrupt the status quo, and a proven track record building enduring companies. We’re thrilled to partner with them.”

“ Amir and Atif Khan have an unmatched track record, team, and architecture for the Network Cloud, which we believe will be more disruptive than SD-WAN. We see a changing business model as companies recognize the value in moving to a network on demand. In Koch’s case, Alkira’s technology has allowed the company to execute its cloud networking operations in days or just hours from what used to be six to 18 months.”

“ Alkira is revolutionizing networking by creating the first truly complete multi-cloud network-as-a-service platform. The Alkira founders were pioneers of the first wave of virtual networking with SD-WAN. They are tackling the next frontier, multi-cloud, to create the first platform that can enable a company to bring their full network fabric into the modern era.”
