Peribit

Peribit (Peribit Networks) was a wide-area network (WAN) acceleration and optimization company backed by Mayfield. It built appliances that reduced bandwidth consumption and accelerated application performance across enterprise WAN links. Peribit Networks was acquired by Juniper Networks in 2005 and is listed as an exited "Milestone" company in the Mayfield portfolio. The company is defunct: it has no active corporate website, developer portal, public API, SDKs, or other machine-readable surface. This API Evangelist profile was created as a VC-portfolio stub for enrichment; the enrichment pass confirmed there is no live API or developer surface to catalog.

Peribit is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Networking, WAN Optimization, Enterprise, and Acquired.
