## About Viptela

Viptela, Inc. was a technology company founded in 2012 and based in San Jose, California.

It specialized in Software-Defined Wide Area Networking (SD-WAN), providing a cloud-first network architecture that simplified the management of enterprise WANs. Viptela's innovative approach decoupled control, management, and data forwarding, allowing for centralized policy enforcement and transport independence. In 2017, Viptela was acquired by Cisco Systems for $610 million, integrating its SD-WAN technology into Cisco's Digital Network Architecture. The Viptela platform was rebranded as Cisco SD-WAN and later evolved into Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN in 2023.
