In today's distributed enterprise, applications such as Microsoft SharePoint and Windows File Share transmit an increasing number of files and data sets over Wide Area Networks (WANs), overburdening available WAN bandwidth. To make matters worse, these collaboration applications can inefficiently retransmit entire files (rather than just incremental changes) multiple times, unnecessarily increasing WAN traffic. IT often responds by expending budget on more bandwidth or enhanced services. Alternatively, WAN acceleration technology can resolve the problem by allowing more efficient utilization of the existing network bandwidth.

Features And Benefits

• LAN like application performance over the WAN
• Comprehensive scanning for intrusions and malware
• Simpli?ed deployment, routing and integration
• Data de-duplication, byte caching and file caching
• Protocol optimization decreases latency and chattiness
• Scalability through clustering
• HTTP (web) caching improves browser response times
