The WAN Optimization Perfect Storm

By September 29, 2011Exec Briefing

Driven by the greatest recession in decades and increasing demand for bandwidth to reliably and effectively support remote offices, the need for a better-functioning, faster, cheaper, and easier to purchase, implement and use WAN solution has never been greater.
But the traditional WAN solutions don’t address the needs for ease of deployment, ease of use and operation, better economics and fit for purpose – crucial requirements of modern businesses, particularly for small and midsize businesses. They also often result in delayed upgrades and significant staff time commitments to manage and maintain complex installations.
This paper discusses an alternative that addresses the above needs – an application acceleration and WAN optimization solution delivered via
cloud-enabled technology.
In this paper, you’ll learn how the existing business model for WAN optimization needs to be redefined and read about the business benefits
of the “Optimized Network as a Service” model.
