From the ecosystem, Intel highlights the industry leaders delivering world-class solutions through the Winners’ Circle Awards. As a member of the Intel Network Builders ecosystem, A10 Networks has contributed to the acceleration of network transformation by working closely with Intel and its ecosystem.

A10 Networks is focused on 5G security solutions with multiple proven tier-one 5G deployments that have required continued hyperscale, lower latency, agility, and advanced security. As 5G adoption increasingly requires multi-terabit performance on the Gi-LAN, A10 Networks continues to provide industry-leading scale in both virtual network functions (VNFs) and physical network functions (PNFs), including scale-out agile deployments with containerized solutions for virtual mobile edge compute requirements. A10 Networks continues to evolve with emerging 5G and related standards specified by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP), European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI), and others.

With the exploding scale of new 5G and IoT threats, solutions leveraging big data models provide cutting-edge predictive analytics, via enhanced machine learning and artificial intelligence, for more autonomous network operations. A10 Networks’ automation and connected intelligence technologies are key foundations to deliver on this requirement.

“With communication service providers deploying 5G services the need for efficient, secure and agile operations is essential,” said Paul Nicholson, senior director of product marketing at A10 Networks. “We are honored to be recognized by Intel for our close collaboration and the Winners’ Circle Leaders Board award as we assist CSPs in making the transition to cloud-native and hyperscale NFVi and 5G security solutions.”
