WALNUT, Calif., May 10, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Remote browser isolation startup WEBGAP today announced the appointment of Jie Song as their Senior VP (of Engineering).  Previously Jie Song was the co-founder and CTO of LogicMonitor, which he helped grow from two-founders to 200+ employees, $140M+ funding and 1000+ enterprise customers, including Adidas, PayPal, Netflix, and Blackstone.

Jie is an expert in building highly-scalable, low-latency, and resilient distributed systems, enterprise IT infrastructure and infrastructure performance monitoring, expertise he will put to work at WEBGAP as they build out their global remote browser isolation platform.

After launching their 'WEBGAP Go' MVP in March, a no-frills virtual browser service, WEBGAP has signed up their first fifty customers and automated the signup and deployment of small business customers through their website.
