Word from the CEO
The months of June and July were tremendous for A10 Networks. At Interop Tokyo, our AX Series Advanced Traffic Manager won Grand Prix/Best of Interop in the Carrier/ISP category due to its high-performance, comprehensive IPv6 solution. The AX Series also won the NTT Plala account to deliver the industry's first live IPv6 server load balancer deployment for "Hikari-TV." The AX Series has the most IPv6 features of any server load balancer on the market, with the capability to run IPv4 and IPv6 simultaneously.

Last month, A10 announced Series C funding of $23 million. The round is lead by our partner Mitsui & Co. Ltd. Existing investors contributed 89 percent of the C funding, demonstrating a high level of investors' confidence. This funding round will enable A10 to reach profitability and expand rapidly over the next 18 months.

Finally, at A10, a superior support experience for our customers is a top priority. We are pleased to announce A10 has hired James Sung as Director of Tech Support to lead our first class support organization. James has over 20 years experience in Software Development and Tech Support.

From all at A10, we wish you a healthy and safe summer.

Lee Chen
Founder and CEO

Behind the Scenes If you couldn't contact Lee, here's his excuse regarding why he couldn't be easily reached for couple of days, and needed to get an iPhone upgrade! As you can see from A10's summer celebration, it's not a bad excuse!

Where's A10 Man? Where did A10 Man go after winning his recent accolades at Interop? Just as American Idol winner David Cook and Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning proclaimed "I'm going to Disneyland," we thought it only fair he received the same treatment!
