What:              

Data in the data center - Performance in the branch: Riverbed delivers the Branch of the Future with the power to rethink IT at every branch or remote office so business needs are met or even exceeded. Riverbed solutions ensure complete data security, with full visibility; instant provisioning and instant recovery; and applications that simply work.

At EMC World, Riverbed, the leader in application performance infrastructure, will demonstrate how to rethink branch IT for maximum business performance.  Branch sites are critical as the "growth engine" of business. But they're also critical in terms of the challenges they present to business operations - the challenge of application performance that affects branch productivity ... the challenge of the continuity and security of data, especially in the face of dramatically and rapidly growing data volume ... and the challenge of branch IT costs. Valuable company data stored in these locations is often left unprotected and frequently stored on servers jammed into closets, corners and hallways due to limited space. Together, EMC and Riverbed deliver the Branch of the Future with the power to rethink IT at every branch or remote office from the point of view of the business rather than technical constraints.

DEMONSTRATIONS (Booth #251)

• Riverbed SteelFusion - Instant Provisioning. Instant Recovery: Achieve maximum agility and business continuity with hyper-converged infrastructure purpose-built for the branch. Provision and deploy new branch services and entirely new branch sites as quickly and as easily as spinning up virtual machines in the data center, leveraging all the rich capabilities and IT talent available at the core of the enterprise. Turn branch recovery into a process that takes minutes versus. days and does not rely on having any IT staff stationed in remote locations, meeting the most aggressive requirements for business continuity and disaster recovery.
• Riverbed SteelHead - Data Center-to-Data Center Replication: Optimize data center-to-data center replication workloads for faster disaster recovery. Using Riverbed SteelHead together with EMC remote storage replication solutions, improve throughput across WANs that have high latency and packet loss by as much as 60x, and reduce bandwidth requirements by as much as 99%.
• Riverbed SteelCentral - Application Performance. Full Visibility: Gain peace of mind with full visibility to detect and fix application performance problems before end-users even notice. Full visibility is a result of the data and analytics from SteelHead technology, embedded as a component of SteelFusion, made visible to users through SteelCentral for identification of network and application performance information.

    • Abstract: This session will discuss the relationship between Branch Converged Infrastructure (BCI), Hyper-Converged Infrastructure (HCI), and data center storage. Specifically, what goes where?" What kinds of data should customers place on branch-based CI and HCI solutions such as VSPEX Blue, and what should remain on data center-class storage such as VNX, VMAX and Vblock?
