Aryaka and Alibaba Cloud Join Forces for a Global Cloud-First WAN Overhaul
In a move that screams “teamwork makes the dream work,” the world’s leading managed SD‑WAN provider, Aryaka, has teamed up with the behemoth of public clouds in Asia‑Pacific, Alibaba Cloud. The partnership is set to turbo‑charge enterprise connectivity across China and beyond.
Why This Matters
- Enterprises in China get a passport to the world, with guaranteed SLAs, application speed‑ups, security hardening, WAN optimisation, SaaS access, last‑mile polish, and global orchestration—all baked into one global service.
- Companies outside Alibaba’s playground can now dip into China using Aryaka’s end‑to‑end WAN, unlocking a “global on‑ramp” to Alibaba Cloud’s network.
- Alibaba Cloud’s International Marketplace will feature Aryaka’s SmartServices portfolio, while the joint reseller Netbank keeps the local flavour in China intact.
