Jul 11 2005
REDWOOD CITY, Calif., July 11, 2005 - Nominum, the leading provider of IP address infrastructure solutions, today announced funding from Juniper Networks. The investment will be used to further expand worldwide sales and business operations in support of its Nominum Foundation™ product family of IP address management solutions.
Nominum Foundation products make it easier for organizations to deploy and manage large scale IP networks and next generation applications such as VoIP. With Nominum, companies can adapt networks quickly to business changes and can gain control of IP assets to improve network availability, security and extensibility.
“This investment underscores the importance of delivering commercial grade solutions for names and address services as millions of IP devices come online,” said Chris Risley, chief executive officer of Nominum. “We will be working closely with Juniper Networks to address the many shortcomings of existing DNS and DHCP deployments, including vulnerability to attacks, availability and scalability.”
“Service providers and enterprises are looking for better IP address management products to allow them to scale their networks, and to deal with their increasing concerns over DNS attacks,” commented Spencer Greene, vice president of Corporate Development, Juniper Networks. “We also observe that solving these problems well requires coordination between IP Address Management and network infrastructure. For both of these reasons, we’re pleased to be investing in Nominum, a company that is addressing these crucial customer issues with best-in-class IP Address Management technology, developed through years of building robust open-source DNS / DHCP products.”
Nominum worldwide customers include British Telecom, Telefonica, Verio, Korea Telekom, Telecom Italia, COLT Telecoms, NTL, Telewest, 3, and KPN.
