Workers today need access to information wherever and whenever they work – whether at corporate headquarters, a branch office, on another continent or on-site with a customer.

The demand for anywhere / anytime access to data puts tremendous strain on IT to deliver an increasing number of applications over the WAN.

With Riverbed, file transfers that once took hours or minutes, now take minutes or seconds.

The product suite has the added benefit, in many situations, of negating the need to expand bandwidth requirements, avoiding significant expense.

Riverbed’s award-winning WAN optimisation solutions strategically enable IT to centralise and reduce operational overhead and expense, whilst improving end-user satisfaction.  Riverbed Steelhead products accelerate application performance and data transfer over the wide area network (WAN), overcoming bandwidth and geographical limitations to improve productivity and enable global collaboration.

Some of the benefits of WAN Optimisation:

Acceleration of key enterprise applications by up to 100 times

IT infrastructure consolidation and virtualisation

Reduced bandwidth utilisation by between 60% and 95%

Enhanced data protection

Secure application acceleration

Visibility and analytics

Enabling the mobile workforce

Virtual Steelhead appliance for custom deployments
