A10 Networks and STC Cloud have come together to offer application delivery as a service in Saudi Arabia. The vendor has announced that its vThunder Virtual Appliance is now available via the service provider.
According to the terms of the agreement, STC Cloud will sell A10 vThunder Cloud offerings as a service for public use environments.
