ActivNetworks Announces Alliance with Global Analytics Corporation
Partnership Provides Customers with Application Acceleration, Security and
Business Continuity
ActivNetworks, a leader in the Application Front-End (AFE) industry based in Paris
France, today announced an alliance with Global Analytics Corporation, based in
Waterbury, CT 06702.
Global Analytics specializes in implementing Business Performance Management and
develops customized analytical solutions. The company has special, well-known
expertise in product offerings from both Hyperion Solutions and OutlookSoft
Corporation. Global Analytics is also well-versed in wide area network infrastructure.
Web-enabled applications are much richer in content than client-server applications and
are much “chattier.” Enterprises that implement Hyperion® and many other HTTP
applications often find that remote users with low bandwidth and high latency suffer
from very poor data delivery speed. ActivNetworks’ BoostEdge family of AFEs solves
this problem transparently and cost-effectively. BoostEdge allows new implementations
of strategic applications to go into production on time with no impact on existing
infrastructure, end user computers or the applications. BoostEdge can also more
effectively perform SSL encryption and acceleration as well as make data centers run
more efficiently.
This new partnership with ActivNetworks will enable Global Analytics to implement
Business Performance Management (BPM) solutions to meet their clients’ demands for
a rapidly installed, cost-effective way to assure adequate response times for remote
locations over a WAN, so that all remote users can access, analyze, and share
business critical information anywhere, any time, on-demand just they way they would
on their local LANs. This combination of Global Analytics’ business and technical
expertise and ActivNetworks’ AFE technology offers enterprises an immediate, risk-free
return on their investment in BPM.
BoostEdge appliances are available in a number of sizes and platforms to
accommodate the acceleration, encryption, security and load balancing needs of small
distributed businesses, mid-sized dispersed enterprises, global enterprises and
organizations, e-commerce sites, hosted applications and ISPs. BoostEdge is normally
installed in less than two hours and is often a major factor in the on-time rollout of a new
corporate application.
“As Business Performance Management and analytic applications become more
mission critical to the enterprise, it is important to have strong alliances with key
applications integrators like Global Analytics,” said Robert-Jan Overzee, ActivNetworks’
Director of Strategic Alliances. "We have had a very positive impact at many Hyperion
accounts. We are delighted to have Global Analytics join our program to more widely
expose our solutions to Hyperion® users in the US.”
“At Global Analytics we believe that the true value of a Business Performance
Management solution is achieved when companies can access information on a
worldwide basis,” said Peter Mulholland, President of Global Analytics. “ActivNetworks
technology allows our customers to achieve worldwide data access with robust
response times.”
About ActivNetworks
ActivNetworks specializes in the development of technologies that analyze and manage
information flows. Pioneers in data acceleration, ActivNetworks developers anticipated
the overwhelming predominance of web-based applications. They conceived the
BoostEdge Application Front-End (AFE) appliance to overcome WAN and TCP/IP
limitations to improve the performance of web-enabled applications, protect web tier
infrastructure and raise the efficiency of data center and bandwidth utilization.
ActivNetworks is privately held. Its core team of BoostEdge developers has been in
place since 1998. BoostEdge and BoostWeb are installed at more than 300 clients who
represent virtually all industry sectors: agribusiness, luxury and consumer products,
banking, insurance, pharmaceuticals, telcos, transportation, oil/energy, professional
services, government and retail.
