Riverbed introduces new Steelhead models
[San Francisco, 4 May 2012] -
Riverbed Technology (NASDAQ: RVBD), the performance company, today announced new Steelhead models - the Steelhead 150 appliance and Virtual Steelhead 150 - as part of its comprehensive wide area network (WAN) optimisation product suite.With these additions to the Steelhead product family, businesses in emerging markets, retail customers, and governments and municipalities that have minimal bandwidth or few users at each location, as well as current customers who would like to extend the deployment to offices with fewer employees, can obtain a cost-effective solution that optimises bandwidth and reduces remote infrastructure.“Many enterprises have made their initial investments in WAN optimisation to achieve branch office server consolidation and reduced WAN bandwidth costs,” states Joe Skorupa, VP, Distinguished Analyst at Gartner Research. “However, the increasing use of dynamic browser-based applications like SharePoint and the introduction of unified communications and collaboration applications and virtual desktops, will require enterprises to evaluate and deploy acceleration technologies in a variety of sizes and form factors to achieve greater performance across their entire infrastructure.”
