Portland, OR(07 May 2013)
Cedexis, the leading global SaaS platform for Big Data optimization of website and mobile application availability and performance, today announced substantial momentum in the US market. Expanded US programs have yielded both high-profile customers and industry recognition as the leading benchmark of Cloud and CDN performance measurement, and as a key enabler of Cloud, data center and multi-CDN global load balancing.
Cedexis, an established European brand with more than 350 customers worldwide, expanded its US marketing and sales efforts in mid-2012, resulting in significant uptake by important US brands, in addition to continued growth in Europe. New customers in the US include: Exponential (Tribal Fusion), Gilead Sciences, LinkedIn, Meteor Entertainment, Microsoft Atlas, Mozilla, NBC News, Tango and Zedo. These brands join Cedexis’ well known European accounts, including, Canal+, L’Equipe, Nissan, LeMonde, Volkswagen and Yves Rocher.
“Adoption by significant new accounts is the best affirmation that our solution is meeting a real, pressing market need,” said Robert Malnati, Vice President of Marketing at Cedexis. “We believe Internet performance isn’t a characteristic of an individual CDN or Cloud provider, but the result of the intelligent orchestration of many Clouds and CDNs. We are thrilled with our momentum in the US market, as we seek to improve the performance of the Internet for every end user, everywhere around the globe.”
Cedexis customers share a common need to provide their end users with outstanding website and mobile application performance, wherever in the world they might be. Cedexis solutions provide monitoring via Cedexis Radar, a free community that uses crowdsourcing to deliver unprecedented visibility into Cloud and CDN performance, from the end-user perspective, by measuring interactions over 1 billion times a day. Monitoring, Usage and Costs data sources, including Radar’s real end user measurements (RUM) and 3rd party data ingested through Cedexis Fusion, are used to inform adaptive load balancing provided by Cedexis Openmix. Openmix is Cedexis’ paid Cloud SaaS product that uses real-time data to dynamically route website and mobile application traffic, around outages and service degradations, to improve performance across the globe.
Cedexis efforts in the US have also been acknowledged by its March 2013 recognition in CIO.com as one of “10 Hot Cloud Startups to Watch.” Cedexis has also been selected to present, in May 2013, at “Under the Radar,” the Silicon Valley’s premier innovation showcase. Cedexis is one of just 20 top companies presenting at the conference, which showcases startups that are building truly innovative products and who are likely to be the next Jive, Yammer or Dropbox. These acknowledgments add to Cedexis’ 2013 and 2012 awards in Europe, including: “2013 New Talent Award” from SFR, “Top 25” award from the Cloud & Big Data Summit organized by the European Association TechTour, an award from EuroCloud France as the “Best Cloud Startup 2012,” and a Silver Medal for “Best Cloud Startup in Europe 2012” from EuroCloud Congress. Also in 2012, Cedexis received an “Innovation Award” from Syntec/Ernst & Young.
