Companies are continuing to implement cloud-first strategies in order to capitalize on cost savings, improved agility and efficiency, and Microsoft is offering powerful benefits for cloud-focused companies. However, there is a major gap that exists for companies to truly achieve these initiatives due to limitations of legacy networks, which are fragile, error-prone and costly, and are holding companies back from reaching the full potential of cloud adoption. 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.
