Marco Now a Talari Gold Partner

PRESS RELEASE — SAN JOSE, Calif., April 27, 2017 — Talari Networks – the trusted SD-WAN technology innovator – announced that Marco has attained Gold partner status in the Talari SMART Partner Program, significantly expanding its portfolio and capabilities to comprehensively cover the high-growth market opportunity in software-defined networking that is rapidly shifting to the last-mile edge.

Enterprises and organizations with multiple remote locations are looking to alter their WAN architectures in support of new digital business initiatives and adoption of public cloud services, which are forecasted to grow 86 percent between 2014 and 2018, according to Gartner.
