Sockeye Networks, founded in 2000, operated in the network management software sector, providing intelligent routing services. The company's core business involved optimizing IP connections for enterprises by integrating real-time global internet traffic data with customer-specific traffic measurements. This service was designed to enhance the performance and reliability of internet connectivity for its business clients.
The company successfully raised $40 million in funding from a consortium of investors that included Baker Capital, Battery Ventures, Credit Suisse, and Polaris Partners. In a significant milestone, Sockeye Networks was acquired by HorizonIQ on October 20, 2003.
