Expand Compass

Compass Technology Overview

Expand acknowledges the changing requirements in the Application Acceleration market. No longer will point solutions delivering just QoS or even Compression meet the real needs of IT organizations. The mandate is changing from WAN management to high performance application delivery; a change brought about with the requirement to link business productivity to application performance. However, without the capability to manage the WAN, the newer vendors bringing application-specific technologies will not meet the real needs of IT organizations either. Expand realizes that only a combined approach that is open to the future will meet the Application Acceleration need for the business and for IT.

These are the five main technologies of the Compass platform:

• WAN Optimization
• Acceleration
• Management & Visibility
• WAFS
• Security
