After installing Riverbed Steelhead appliances at its UK and Dubai offices, Lucy Switchgear experienced a 50% reduction in bandwidth utilization and 90% improvement in file transfer times.
The Riverbed Optimization System (RiOS®) is based on an application-independent foundation that accelerates all enterprise applications, but also provides a mechanism to add additional acceleration for specific applications that suffer most from the effects of high latency. Application streamlining is the realization of that flexibility and power.
Application streamlining can provide an additional order-of-magnitude improvement in application performance, over and above what is provided by data streamlining and transport streamlining, by reducing application-protocol chattiness up to 98 percent and minimizing application overhead.
Today, RiOS includes additional application performance via application streamlining for the following protocols:
RiOS also includes important features for maximizing branch office productivity, such as file server capabilities and the capability to pre-populate Steelhead® appliances from Riverbed Technology, or even file servers with popular data. The optional feature known as Proxy File Service (PFS) also supports disconnected operations so that files can be accessed by users in branch offices even if a WAN connection fails.
