About Andy Ory: Andy Ory, CEO and co-founder of MA-based128 Technology. 128 Technology has a differentiated approach to software-defined networking, or SD-WAN. Its software makes routers smarter and allows company networks to better facilitate the delivery of business services and applications. In 2000, Ory co-founded Acme Packet, a Boston-based company that offered session border control technology that allowed telecommunications network operators to more efficiently manage voice and data communications over IP. His timing couldn’t be better, as Acme Packet emerged as a viable solution just as connected businesses were looking for a more secure, reliable way to deliver communications to any device, over any network. The company raised $100 million in its 2006 IPO. After continuing to build the business into a networking powerhouse, Ory sold Acme Packet to Oracle for $2.1 billion in 2013. After taking some time to recharge, Ory and his business partner, Patrick Melampy, founded 128 Technology in 2014. Ory’s timing was right again as corporations are desperately seeking greater network security, agility, reliability and performance. Ory projects that 128 Technology is on a similar growth trajectory as Acme Packet, given the global market for its networking solutions. To date, 128 Technology has raised $68 million. It is quickly acquiring new customers and partners frustrated with experiences with Cisco and other providers of hardware-based approaches to networking, which has seen little innovation over the past 30 years. Some recent partner momentum comes from companies such as AWS, Lanner, Intel, NESIC, Redvine, CMC, and Voxai, just to name a few.

I am very, very excited with the entrepreneur that we are going to have on the show today. He is someone that has built several businesses from the ground up. Someone that is coming from a family of entrepreneurs. He's seen it. He's done it, and I think that we're going to be learning a lot from him, especially when it comes to the software-defined networking and Voice over IP, and all the good stuff that we've seen from technology during the past ten years, and also to what we have in the future ahead. So, without further ado, I'd like to welcome our guest today. His name is Andy Ory from 128 Technology. Welcome to the show today. Andy Ory: Alejandro,

With the Channel Partners Conference & Expo now just a little over a month away, the guys are getting serious. (Well, kind of. Their guests certainly are.) First up is Tim Cook, founder and chief revenue officer of Blulogix, the B2B monetization specialists. Cook explains how partners can take advantage of what he calls the "monetization moment" and discusses the on-demand Channel Partners webinar that can help our audience make a giant leap toward getting there. Next up is Andy Ory, co-founder and CEO of 128 Technology, a company that takes a unique look at networking. Ory tells us how the surge in the use of multiple clouds is impacting the industry and how his company's Session Smart SD-WAN is changing the game for its partner community. All that, plus--are you ready to par-tay? The revamped Digi Awards at the upcoming Channel Partners Conference & Expo in Las Vegas now features a party where we're welcoming a few hundred guests to put their hands up and raise a glass. We break it all down.

Andy Ory sold his last company, Acme Packet, to Oracle for $2.1 billion and soon after co-founded 128 Technology. 128 Technology is on a mission to fix the broken internet. The internet isn’t used for what it was originally designed for and that is putting a major strain on the networking infrastructure. 128 Technology provides greater network security delivered with a much simpler experience for a fraction of the usual cost.   In this episode, Andy talks about:   Why the Internet is broken and how it got that way   What he was able to take away from Acme Packet and apply to 128 Technology   How their secure vector routing and zero-trust security is disrupting the market   How he sees the Internet continuing to evolve   Links from today’s episode:   128 Technology   Oracle Buys Acme Packet   Fuze   The Big Short   Liar’s Poker   11/22/63: A Novel   If you liked this episode:   Follow the podcast on Twitter   Subscribe on iTunes or your podcast app and write a review Get in touch with feedback, ideas, or to say hi: nic {AT} startupbostonpodcast [DOT] com   Music by: Broke For Free  

I think we can all agree reluctantly or not that tech now dominates our lives. But, I recently discovered that there are some major structural issues with the internet that need fixing. With IoT, 5G and cloud services ramping up, the internet is being asked to do things it was never designed for and is getting closer to a breaking point. 128 Technology that was founded by a group of technologists and entrepreneurs that are on a mission to fix the internet. The stealthy startup is led by Andy Ory, the former co-founder, and CEO of Acme Packet, which was bought by Oracle for $2.1B. For those familiar with Acme Packet, this will sound like a natural evolution of Ory’s and his co-founders’ ideas. Essentially, 128 Technology is re-thinking routing the critical enabler of Internet communications, but a technology segment that hasn’t seen real innovation since the 1990   Guest Info www.128technology.com @128technology  

This week my guest is Patrick MeLampy, co-founder of 128 Technology and that company’s Chief Operating Officer. With longtime partner Andy Ory, Patrick co-founded Acme Packet Inc. and served as its Chief Technology Officer, eventually taking the company public and selling to Oracle in a transaction valued at over $1.7 Billion. Patrick holds a BS degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Pittsburgh and an MBA from Boston University. A great student of innovation, Patrick has accumulated 26 issued or pending patents, and has some very specific ideas to share on what keeps most people and companies from innovating, the subject of this week's second segment. ​ How Hard Can It Be is sponsored by G20 Ventures, early traction capital for East Coast enterprise tech startups, backed by the power and expertise of 20 ​of the Northeast's most accomplished ​entrepreneurs.
