whitepaper Extreme Networks Supports Wireless Mobility at Patient Bedside for St. Johannes Hospital2008-06-01 Extreme Networks
  St. Johannes Hospital in Troisdorf-Sieglar, Germany, with just over 400 staff members, has more than 182 beds and treats approximately 8,800 inpatients and as many outpatients each year. The Hospital Information System (HIS) was looking to create a virtually paperless hospital operations chain in addition to its existing implementation of PACS. Ideally, the intent was to have all patient information processed and stored digitally and made available to its staff whenever and wherever needed. The hospital deployed Extreme Networks for its infrastructure, with the redundancy provided by Extreme Standby Router Protocol (ESRP), a hot-standby failover mechanism for Layer 2 and Layer 3 IP networks.

whitepaper Padua Hospital Conducts Infrastructure Check-Up and Calls on Extreme Networks to Boost Network Health2008-06-01 Extreme Networks
  Padua Hospital was faced with network slowdowns and was often vulnerable to instability caused by traffic spikes and security threats. With a need to service over 5,000 users, the hospital needed a segmented and redundant network to ensure life-saving applications would work to serve its patients' needs 24/7. Padua Hospital deployed Extreme Networks which provided a complete solution that would provide the reliability and performance necessary for high-performance applications and around-the-clock traffic. The new Extreme Networks high-performance network is more robust and capable of handling the hospital's users, traffic spikes, and bandwidth-intensive technologies, able to transport massive files without delay or degradation.

whitepaper Accelerating Mission-Critical Oracle Applications Throughout the Distributed Enterprise2008-06-01 Juniper Networks
  From Oracle E-Business Suite to PeopleSoft Enterprise, Siebel, JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, and JD Edwards World, Oracle offers a full complement of integrated business solutions that improve functional best practices, integrate Web services, provide predictive analysis and enable more flexible, collaborative business processes. Many businesses today rely on Oracle applications to support their ongoing business operations. However, globalization and server centralization create performance problems for remote and branch-office users accessing these applications over the WAN. The WX and WXC application acceleration platforms from Juniper Networks accelerate the performance of Oracle business applications over the WAN. Remote and branch-office users receive LAN-like response times, regardless of their location.

whitepaper St. Monica's College Builds State-of-the-Art Network With Best-in-Class Solutions From Juniper Networks2008-06-01 Juniper Networks
  St. Monica's College in Melbourne, Australia, is a regional Catholic coeducational secondary college established in 1964. It currently has over 2,300 students, teachers and support staff. The College needed to build a secure intranet that would support its learning management system as well as converged voice, data and video applications, and to enable secure access to selected applications. St. Monica's deployed Juniper's SA 4000 SSL VPN and IC 4000 to provide the infrastructure for a secure intranet as well as an extranet that would enable staff and students to access St. Monica's network from home and to differentiate their network and application access based on their role, whether remote or local.

whitepaper The George Washington University Delivers Robust, Secure Wireless Network Services Across the Campus2008-06-01 Juniper Networks
  The George Washington University (GW) is a private university founded by an Act of Congress in 1821, and is the largest university in the District of Columbia with more than 20,000 undergraduate and graduate students studying business, law, medicine, education, public health, international affairs, engineering, and liberal arts. GW wanted to deploy a secure wireless network service at a large urban university campus in the Washington, D.C., area and protect the campus network against unauthorized access, network intrusions, and attacks. After a competitive evaluation of five Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) VPNs, GW selected Juniper Networks' best-in-class security platform as the best fit for its business and technology needs.

whitepaper Denso Boosts Global WAN Performance With Juniper Networks WX Platform2008-06-01 Juniper Networks
  As a global corporation, Denso has operations in more than 30 countries around the world. The company has specified a required response time of five seconds or less after a request has been entered into the system. However, as the amount of data flowing across the network increased, it had to take urgent measures to ensure that this requirement could be met and to improve the overall performance of the WAN. Denso deployed Juniper Networks WX platform for WAN acceleration. Juniper Networks WX is a best-in-class application acceleration platform which provides broad support for Web-based, client/server, custom software, voice and video applications.

whitepaper The Evolution of the Optical Network2008-06-01 ADC Telecommunications
  Service providers are extending fiber deeper into the access network than ever before to meet the higher bandwidth demands of consumers. The high bandwidth requirements generated by new triple- and quadruple-play services, particularly in the video arena, are rapidly exhausting the capabilities of legacy copper infrastructures in the access network. The need to convert from copper to fiber is presenting new challenges, particularly in the Central Offices (COs), head-ends, data centers and Mobile Switching Centers (MSCs). Converting to fiber in areas that have been traditionally copper is resulting in more fiber connections between the equipment and a requirement for higher-density fiber terminations.   
whitepaper Cisco Digital Media System Deployments for Digital Signage With Cisco ACNS Software2008-06-01 Cisco Systems
  The distributed architecture of Cisco ACNS Software is intended to reduce WAN traffic by intercepting requests for web and video traffic and serving those requests at the network edge from the local cache or file system. This architecture allows for delivery of rich web content and high-quality digital media files to Cisco Digital Media Players (DMPs) without absorbing valuable WAN bandwidth. This paper discusses these and many other features that make the Cisco Digital Media System and Cisco ACNS critical pieces to a digital signage solution.

whitepaper Virtual Private Networks - Solutions for Secure Remote Access2008-06-01 Decipher Information Systems
  Virtual Private Networks, or VPNs, have become an essential part of company network infrastructures both large and small. The ability for users to access resources in an internal corporate network securely from remote locations has created a wealth of opportunities for companies both from a functional as well as convenience standpoint. The technology involved in creating secure network connections over the public Internet is complex, and can involve a number of communications protocols along with various hardware and software components. This paper will provide an overview of VPNs. Topics of discussion include the responsibilities of a VPN, essential elements, tunneling protocols, and risks associated with using VPNs.

whitepaper Rapid Response Monitoring Services, Inc. Ensures Security and Business Commitments With Managed BorderGuard High Security VPN Services2008-05-19 Blue Ridge Networks
  RRMS is a nationwide leader in wholesale security alarm monitoring services that security companies in turn resell to residential, corporate, and government customers. With the threat of attack from hackers becoming more tangible each day, RRMS wanted to add an additional layer of protection to its security systems to meet the risk head-on and bolster the critical requirements of the business. RRMS deployed Blue Ridge Networks for its solution. The immediate success achieved with Blue Ridge Networks and its BorderGuard VPN appliances have already prompted longer-term plans. They are already using the service to protect wireless traffic within their own building and plan to use it to enable their dealers to access accounts with their Pocket PCs.
