COPENHAGEN, Denmark, September 19, 2018 - Napatech(TM) (OSLO: NAPA.OL), the leading provider of reconfigurable computing platforms, today announced it has partnered with StarLink, the fastest growing Value-Added Distributor (VAD) in the Middle East, Turkey and Africa (META) region.
StarLink supports over 2,200 enterprise and government customers globally with on-the-ground presence in 16 countries globally. StarLink's innovative Security Framework brings together best-of-breed product and market-leading technologies from top solution providers that are sold through its channel network of over 1100 partners.
Napatech's reconfigurable computing platform improves the performance of leading IT applications for networking, security, big data, analytics, machine learning and artificial intelligence.
