F5 Networks to Acquire Acopia Networks

F5 Networks has agreed to acquire Acopia Networks, a provider of intelligent file virtualization solutions. The $210 million cash transaction for 100% of the equity of Acopia is expected to close on or shortly after September 14, 2007, subject to satisfaction of the closing conditions.

With over 20,000 customers worldwide, F5's technology optimizes application delivery by providing an integrated application-fluent infrastructure that ensures the performance, security, and availability of applications. Just as F5's BIG-IP products have revolutionized server and application scalability, availability, performance, and security, Acopia's intelligent file virtualization technology will enable F5 to apply the same principles to data storage.
