Enterprises around the globe are continuing to adopt a cloud-first mindset in order to capitalize on the benefits of digital transformation, and AWS is offering powerful benefits for cloud-focused companies. However, many organizations are struggling to harness the full potential of AWS and other cloud services due to limitations of legacy networks, which are fragile, error-prone and costly and are not suited to keep up with the demands of the cloud and digital era. According to a recent Riverbed survey, 97% of organizations say their legacy networks will have difficulty keeping pace with changing demands of cloud and hybrid networks. To address these challenges, Riverbed is delivering solutions to help businesses transition from legacy hardware to a new software-defined and cloud-centric networking approach in order to become more agile, respond quickly to changing business needs, protect applications in the cloud and ultimately, reach their cloud and digital transformation goals faster.
