Spirent continues to gain industry recognition for its market-leading approach to advancing cloud computing testing. At the recent 2010 NetEvents EMEA Press Summit in Istanbul, Turkey, Spirent was named the ‘Most Innovative Technology Company of the Year’ and also received the ‘Most Innovative Test & Measurement Product of the Year’ award for its Spirent Avalanche Virtual solution.
An independent panel of industry analysts, senior technology editors and reporters from around the globe confirmed that virtualized data center efficiency and security are critical issues to many organizations. They also recognized that Spirent’s testing solution enables equipment manufacturers, service providers and enterprises to address these issues with a simple to use, flexible and powerful performance test solution. The judges found Spirent Avalanche Virtual to be an innovative and extremely significant answer to the challenges of determining the security of a virtual environment, while offering the capability to scale to millions of users.
“Many enterprises are increasingly thinking of joining the cloud computing bandwagon for its obvious benefits,” said Zafar Anjum, editor, Computerworld Singapore & Computerworld Malaysia. “Spirent Avalanche Virtual provides an innovative test solution that can help companies emulate real user traffic and much more in cloud environments. This innovation is important as it helps navigate this emerging technology.”
