Consul helps organizations more easily manage the unique networking and security challenges experienced in the cloud, where rapid growth and increased scale create new complexities, while requiring a new approach. Bringing Singh onboard is part of HashiCorp’s ongoing, significant investment in Consul, a product designed to help organizations transition to the cloud by fundamentally changing how they think about networking. Cloud networking is expected to have a total addressable market of more than $31 billion by 2026 according to 650 Group.
Gurpreet joins HashiCorp to continue driving innovation with Consul across the company’s open source, self-managed, and cloud offerings. As organizations adopt service-based networking, Consul enables these organizations to match the velocity of modern application delivery practices, without compromising consistency in the way the networks are deployed and managed or with security policies. HashiCorp Consul uses service identities to discover, secure, automate and access applications running in any environment. For example, a fast growing use case emerging is organizations deploying Consul as a service mesh to enable zero-trust networking by securing applications across any runtime such as Kubernetes, VMs and Amazon ECS
“With hundreds of enterprise Consul customers Consul is a leading built-for-the-cloud networking solution. As we continue to invest extensively in Consul and meet this growing enterprise demand, we are pleased to have Gurpreet join us to build and deliver best-in-class cloud service networking solutions,” said Armon Dadgar, co-founder and CTO, HashiCorp. “Gurpreet brings a breadth of experience across networking, data, and storage, as well as years of experience with product development and management, and we look forward to his contributions leading and growing the team.”
The enterprise version of HashiCorp Consul has hundreds of commercial customers, including Bloomberg, BNP Paribas, CapitalOne, Cloudflare, Comcast, Deluxe, Deutsche Borse, eBay, Exact Sciences, F5, General Motors, Pandora, Robinhood, Stripe, SAP Ariba, SeatGeek, WePay (a Chase company), Q2, Tide Business Banking, and Workday.
