Array Networks (News - Alert) unveiled the new AG 1000 Series secure access gateways based on its 64-bit SpeedCore architecture and these gateways are designed to help enterprises mid-market businesses and cloud service providers cater to the increasing mobile workforce demands.

The Array SpeedCore is a software-based delivery networking (ADN) platform engineered to secure, accelerate and control high-volume data traffic driven by explosive growth in the areas of mobility, virtualization and cloud computing. Four new appliances that leverage this platform are part of the AG series and they are purported to offer unmatched performance, scalability, flexibility and value as compared to competing solutions.
