whitepaper Orange- customer case study2009-09-08 Pitney Bowes
  The ability to leverage location intelligence was critical to the successful rollout of our 3G network as it enabled us to identify potential customers and where they would likely use our enhanced third generation services. As our decision making process was much more informed by location-based data, we could build our network in areas that will serve our customers most effectively.

whitepaper Oil Services Firm Consolidates Servers, Simplifies IT With Branch Optimization Solution2009-06-01 Microsoft
  Expro is a leading provider of oil-and-gas services and products. As the company expanded to 150 offices in 50 countries, its branch servers multiplied. Expro decided to centralize servers but needed to address the challenge of increased traffic on its Wide Area Network (WAN) and the productivity impact on field workers accessing files over the network. Expro decided to replace branch servers with the Windows Server on WAAS (Wide Area Application Services) solution; a Cisco WAN optimization appliance that also runs basic IT services. Expro anticipates consolidating 25 branch servers and streamlining IT operations and costs.

whitepaper The Impact of Virtualization on Application Delivery Over the WAN2009-05-09 Streamcore
  Although virtualization has received a lot of attention in the trade publications over the last couple of years, it is not a new concept. IT organizations have been implementing virtualized technologies such as Virtual LANs (VLANs) and Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) for at least twenty years. Most of the recent interest in virtualization has centered on server and desktop virtualization. In a survey that was completed in August 2008, 205 IT professionals were asked to indicate by the end of 2009 how much deployment their organization will have made of these forms of virtualization. IT organizations have a significant interest in deploying both server and desktop virtualization.

whitepaper TechNet Webcast: Branch Consolidation With Windows Server and Cisco WAN Optimization (Level 300)2009-04-23 Microsoft
  Running Windows Server on the Cisco Wide-Area Appliance Service (WAAS) branch office solution reduces the cost and complexity of providing IT services in branch locations with accelerated access to centralized applications and secure and reliable local Windows Server services. The platform includes Windows Server 2008 Server Core installation on the Cisco WAAS platform, which communicates over a Wide-Area Network (WAN) to a Cisco WAAS appliance in a data center. Windows branch services include Active Directory, Domain Name System (DNS) Server, Microsoft Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) Server, and Microsoft Print Services.

whitepaper Technical Track: Deliver LAN-Like Performance for VMware View to Branch Offices and Mobile Users2009-03-11 VMware
  Desktop virtualization dramatically simplifies IT infrastructure, provides greater enterprise data security and enables cost effective IT utilization and management. While some desktop virtualization products attempt to use communication protocols designed for Wide Area Networks (WANs), even these products run into two fundamental challenges when trying to support users located across the globe: bandwidth constraints often limit the amount of data or the number of users, and latency prevents users' applications from delivering LAN-like performance.

whitepaper Final Cut Pro Media Plug-In2009-02-12 Signiant
  As timelines get shorter and people in the industry become specialized, collaborating and editing large media files in geographically dispersed locations is increasingly common in today's non-linear editing environments. Signiant's integration with Apple's Final Cut Pro (FCP) non linear editing system replaces the need to move large media projects across the WAN using FTP-based solutions or expensive point-to-point hardware-based file acceleration technologies. Within the Final Cut Pro interface, users can select the Signiant Transfer option.

whitepaper Site-to-Site Channel Bonding2009-02-10
  Site-to-site channel bonding enables two or more sites equipped with specialized WAN optimization controllers to provide WAN link aggregation load balancing and failover capabilities which communicate over multiple networks using the combined throughput of multiple and diverse WAN links at multiple sites. This technology allows local and remote sites to send and receive large data files as if they were directly connected by a physical high-capacity link - at a fraction of the cost of supporting such a link. The WAN optimization controllers used for site-to-site channel bonding are located between the LAN network and WAN connections at each site.

whitepaper A Guide to WAN Application Delivery for the SME Market2009-02-10
  Today's Small-to-Medium sized Enterprises (SME) are undergoing the same IT evolution as their large enterprise counterparts, only on a smaller scale. For SMEs, WAN reliability, flexible scalability, performance and ease of management are as essential to their WAN infrastructure as they are to a large enterprise. SMEs are able to achieve efficiencies and competitive advantages through the adoption of affordable, yet feature-rich WAN optimization technologies. On the other hand, without suitable technology, they will be competitively disadvantaged. Therefore, choosing the appropriate WAN Optimization solution is critical to ensure efficient WAN infrastructure to meet today's requirements, while also ensuring the right path for tomorrow's business needs.

whitepaper Overcoming the Challenges of WAN Application Delivery2009-02-10
  Today's Small-to-Medium size Enterprises (SME) rely heavily on their business applications being sent reliably over the Internet, outside of their LAN. These applications can include inventory, customer relationship management, sales, accounting and other critical applications that are the livelihood of a company's operations. Therefore, quick and reliable delivery of these applications to users is a major challenge for today's IT departments. To achieve greater productivity, local employees, telecommuters, business partners and customers must all have unhindered access to critical applications. Any delay in delivering these applications, or deficiency in the availability and security of the applications, can cause user productivity to suffer and adversely affect business profitability.
