“We have an amazing product team in place who has been on a roll and, to be honest, didn’t feel we needed a CPO until we met Ashok,” said Kip Turco, StackPath CEO. “Ashok brings so much experience in product management and development, not to mention engineering and networking, that we knew he could help us create and advance our edge computing offerings even faster.”

“When Juniper began working with StackPath, I was awed by what they had achieved and their vision for taking edge computing even further – to the ‘deep edge’,” said Ganesan. “A lot of companies claim to be ‘edge’, but I am excited to be on the front line and part of a team actually provides a full array of cloud edge services and has even more in the works.”
Ganesan has a Master of Science in business analytics from NYU Sterns, an MBA from the University of Ottawa, and a Bachelor of Engineering in computer engineering from Delhi University. He will report to the CEO.
