Rayonier, a leading international forest products company, chose Riverbed Technology for a global WAN optimization solution in order to make its private cloud a reality. With Riverbed, Rayonier was able to consolidate and virtualize eight data centers down to two, without diminishing end-user performance or adding bandwidth. The success of this project enabled Rayonier to payback its Riverbed investment in […]

Built from years of experience, HP’s approach to storage transformation follows a model that leverages a range of consolidation and virtualization solutions and delivery models to improve upon distributed storage limitations. Think beyond a unified SAN storage, server and storage tiering to compatible block storage environments-where a single management interface for both block and scale-out file environments helps you not […]

WAN optimization plays an important role in today’s highly distributed datacenters and cloud computing architectures. Massive consolidation and data mobility, enabled by virtualization, have radically altered how we build servers, design applications, and deploy storage for the emerging “cloud” decade. This paper discusses how Riverbed solutions effectively eliminate IT performance constraints in such environments.

Mobile work continues to evolve. Your organization must keep up with the demands of its mobile workforce. This report introduces the concept of mobile WAN optimization and provides three case studies including RCM, PRTM and Einstein that highlight how this emerging technology can help IT departments achieve what previously appeared to be conflicting goals.

Is it possible to eliminate the impact of distance? This paper explores the 5 key principles successful CIOs are using to redesign IT infrastructure of any size. Learn how to be prepared to adapt your environment in a way that supports distributed employees, anytime anywhere collaboration and the need for business continuity during a disaster.

Wide area network (WAN)-based approaches to data backup are dramatically influenced by WAN bandwidth limitations and network latency. Without significant, costly WAN bandwidth upgrades this can make WAN-based backup impossible for large remote offices with significant data stores. Riverbed makes network-based backup feasible, in many cases through use of existing WAN links, without the need for bandwidth upgrades. Our intelligent, […]
