When ABD Insurance & Financial needed to optimize the connection between its remote data centers and more, Riverbed was able to meet their diverse needs.
Various vendors offer web-acceleration appliances that improve the performance of applications, typically by off-loading a web server. Unlike these products, Steelhead® appliances from Riverbed Technology optimize all TCP traffic, not just web traffic.
There are two types of web-acceleration appliances: one consists of a single appliance deployed in front of a web server (Riverbed® doesn't compete with those products). The second type is a symmetric architecture with an appliance at both ends of a WAN link that intercepts web traffic and uses dynamic caching or other techniques to improve the performance of the application. As with other single-purpose products, Riverbed offers a more comprehensive solution that optimizes both web applications and all other traffic going over TCP.
