NTT America and Riverbed Technology have partnered to provide global and regional businesses with cost savings through solutions that enhance employee productivity and reduce overall IT infrastructure and complexity. NTT America offers the Managed WPA (WAN Performance Accelerator) service based upon Riverbed’s Steelhead appliances. The service provides multinational and regional business with LAN-like access to data and applications for users in branch offices, regardless of their locations and distance. The service performance enables cost savings through reductions in both opex and capex, as enterprises are able to optimize their bandwidth usage while consolidating their IT infrastructure and reducing IT complexity and overhead. In addition, the managed service acceleration helps ensure business continuity through improved backup and replication processes, and it also improves staff productivity and real-time collaboration.
Working with their clients, NTT engineers perform needs assessments and create network designs based on Riverbed solutions. Next, they provide project management and install and test the Steelhead appliances. Following implementation, NTT provides ongoing maintenance and support, including 24/7 remote and proactive monitoring and troubleshooting of both WPA and the network.
