THE LEADER IN DATA CENTER CLASS WAN OPTIMIZATION

Silver Peak’s strengths include:• Segment-leading products• Differentiated optimization for UDP/TCP• Compensation for error prone links• Very high performance with very low

latency

The Best Current Product

Offering.

USE SILVER PEAK when data center-to-data center

performance

is critical and in branch-to-date center

networks when UDP traffic and error-prone

links are important factors. – Gartner MQ

BIG PLANS IN IT = INCREASED NETWORK DEPENDENCY

• Disaster recovery– Protect more data across longer distances over converged networks

• Data center consolidation/cloud– Data and server placement impacted by WAN performance

• Server & storage centralization– Users farther from resources

• Real-time collaboration– Improve quality of unified communications (voice/video)

• Virtualization– Multi-site VDI and VM migration impacted by poor WAN quality


• Enterprises are increasingly dependent on the WAN– IT resources centralized, users distributed

– Shift to private/public/hybrid clouds

• Dynamic array of applications– Increasing amount of real-time traffic

• Enterprise WANs are a disparate collection of network services

– Private line, MPLS, Internet, cloud, satellite, …

ENTERPRISE WAN CHALLENGES


DON’T LET YOUR WAN BE THE WEAK LINK


SILVER PEAK’S VIRTUAL ACCELERATION OPEN ARCHITECTURE (VXOA)

• No hardware dependencies– Same performance whether physical or virtual

• No application plug-ins

• Easy integration with 3rd party products– Blades, servers, switches, routers, storage arrays, …

– All hypervisors

• Flexible pricing– Subscription – i.e. pay as you go

– Perpetual

– Pay as you grow investment protection

IT STARTS WITH A ROBUST ARCHITECTURE


VXOA = WAN OPTIMIZATION ANYWHERE

• Congestion is VDI’s worst enemy– Fix packet loss in real-time; avoid re-

transmissions– QoS prioritizes VDI

• Overcome distance limitations– Mitigate TCP chattiness; Packet coalescing

• Maximize bandwidth utilization– Low-latency WAN deduplication

• Other Silver Peak benefits:– Industry leading flow count– Real-time encryption– No plugins required

SILVER PEAK IS A KEY ENABLER FOR VIRTUAL DESKTOPS

We thought we’d have to stop using

Citrix and move back to managing 6,000

remote devices. Silver Peak allowed us

to avoid doing that, ensuring the

success of our VDI deployment –
