Citrix announced that it has acquired Cedexis, a startup that brings a real time and data driven service for dynamically optimizing the flow of traffic across hybrid-multi-cloud.
Citrix plans to combine its networking portfiolio with Cedexis' dynamic app delivery solution to deliver a superior experience to their end users.
The combined power of Citrix and Cedexis can significantly improve app performance in hybrid and multi-cloud environments using Cedexis’ dynamic and programmable intelligent traffic steering technology, claims Citrix.
This acquisition further differentiates the Citrix secure digital perimeter (SDP) approach to security and performance. With modern distributed applications powered by micro-services in hybrid and multi-cloud environments, Citrix said it can now offer dynamic real-time intelligent traffic management that enables infrastructure orchestration and real-time actionable insights into end-user engagement.
Cedexis technology will extend Cedexis' ability to provide customers with deeper real-time insight into network performance and enables intelligent traffic steering for applications in multi-cloud environments.

IT teams will be able to respond and act quicker when troubleshooting network issues, managing load across clouds, and handling capacity changes to scale with business needs.
Ryan Windham, CEO, Cedexis
Citrix is the clear leader in software-defined networking that helps IT adopt and manage complex cloud environments. It makes sense to combine our offerings into a comprehensive secure digital perimeter approach, which unifies and delivers the apps, data and services people need to be productive.
