When integrated into your hybrid environment, SteelHead keeps the ideas flowing, assembly lines moving and revenue growing 24/7.

Riverbed’s capabilities and benefits span across both the private WAN and the Internet. SteelHead SaaS offers secure optimization of SaaS applications for a global workforce – accommodating user, client and application mobility.

Develop & Deliver Applications on Azure

Adopting the cloud can mean a loss of control and uncertainty. Building new apps of migrating existing ones can have unpredictable outcomes. With AppInternals bundled in, IT gets the end-to-end visibility that they need, into their cloud servers to improve performance and user experience. The cloud is no longer a black hole.

AppInternals monitors applications in the cloud, on-premise or in a combination of both, and presents performance insights and analytics on a single interactive view. It helps existing, on-premises Microsoft customers retain the control and visibility they enjoy on-premises, within Azure. Users can inspect user experience, trace transactions, measure system resources and perform analytics to expose, diagnose and fix bottlenecks.
