The next generation of data Acceleration
Rapidly Move Data Anytime, Anywhere
Colm Foley
Channel Sales Manager

2. Enterprise WAN Challenges
IT resources centralized while users distributed
Shift to private/public/hybrid clouds
Dynamic array of applications
Increasing amount of real-time traffic
Enterprise WANs consist of disparate network services
Private line, MPLS, Internet, cloud,…

3. Big Plans in IT = Increased Network Dependency
Disaster recovery
Protect more data across longer distances over converged networks
Data center consolidation/cloud
Data and server placement impacted by WAN performance
Server & storage centralization
Users farther from resources
Virtualization
Multi-site VDI and VM migration limited by poor WAN quality

4. DON’T LET YOUR WAN BE THE WEAK LINK

5. Today’s Data Acceleration Requirements have Evolved
Must be Easy to Deploy; Adaptable to Changing Conditions
Optimize any application, any version without special plugins
Deployable by network, storage and virtual professionals
Suitable for all locations
Single solution scales from small offices to large data center and cloud
Beyond Bandwidth
Solve WAN capacity, distance and quality issues
Application + network visibility
Virtualization is a game changer….

Silver Peak’s Virtual Beats Riverbed’s Physical
InfoWorld Test Center editor Keith Schultz writes:
“If you are considering deploying a WAN optimization solution, you owe it to yourself to give a Silver Peak VX a test run. You won't be disappointed.”
“I found the VX to provide a substantial improvement in overall WAN usage and reduction in time, even besting a [Riverbed Steelhead 2050] physical chassis in some tests.”
Rated a perfect “10” for Value.
