"IT organizations are expected to cost-effectively provide the solid infrastructure needed to meet application performance, high-availability and scalability requirements of workers around the globe," said Frank Huerta, CEO. "We are pleased to announce the Translattice leadership team as we launch a completely new approach to enterprise computing that intelligently distributes data and application resources as requirements change. Combining the team's strengths in distributed computing and infrastructure, with a proven track record of launching and operating highly-successful technology businesses, we are in a unique position to build Translattice into a major global force in enterprise computing."

Translattice combines disparate computing capabilities into one cohesive system that provides users with reliable and rapid access to information. Translattice's unique ability to decentralize enterprise computing resources allows large applications and associated databases to be spread across inexpensive appliances and cloud instances, rather than provisioned centrally on specialized, expensive architectures.
