Networking technology company Brocade has said its $1.2 billion acquisition of Ruckus Wireless will enable it to deliver a wider range of services that enterprises need in the digital transformation era. The addition of Ruckus Wireless' mobile Internet-focused systems and services will help Brocade become "a pure-play networking company that has market-leading solutions spanning from the most critical part of the data center to the wireless network edge," Brocade CEO Lloyd Carney and Ruckus Wireless president and CEO Selina Lo said in a joint blog post announcing the deal.
