Our take
Aviatrix is trying to modernise cloud technology by overcoming the isolation of different clouds that are built and operated by different companies. Its software facilitates multi-cloud networking, providing visualization, smooth data access, and firewall management.
The cloud revolution caused a mass migration of companies’ data from on-premise storage to cloud storage, but this migration is still ongoing. Aviatrix’s software helps with this migration and then allows these clouds to communicate with each other, while maintaining security, data integrity, automation, and user friendliness.
The rapid growth and enormous potential in this market has been noted by other companies and while investments are currently high, the space is likely to become crowded as competitors such as Site24x7 offer similar services. However, Aviatrix is a well-placed early adopter in an area of networking that hasn’t seen true innovation for years. It has also been named as one of 2024 's fastest growing private companies by Inc 5000, indicating its strong position.
