Riverbed Application Streaming

Application Streaming

RiOS is based around an application-independent foundation that accelerates all enterprise applications, but also offers a mechanism to give additional acceleration for specific applications that suffer most from the effects of high latency. Application Streamlining is the realization of that flexibility and power. Application Streamlining offers an additional order-of-magnitude improvement in application performance, more than what is provided by Data Streamlining and Transport Streamlining, by decreasing application-protocol chattiness up to 98% and reducing application overhead. Today, RiOS is equipped with additional application performance via Application Streamlining for the following protocols:

• CIFS (Windows file sharing, backup and replication, and other Windows-based applications)
• MAPI (Microsoft Exchange – v 5.5, 2000 and 2003 are all supported)
• NFS (v 3.0 - UNIX File Sharing and Unix-based applications)
• HTTP (Web applications)
• HTTPS (Secure Web applications)
• MS-SQL (Database applications)

RiOS also has important features for optimizing branch office productivity, such as file server capabilities and the capability to pre-populate Steelhead appliances or even file servers with popular data. The feature known as Proxy File Service (PFS) which is optional also supports disconnected operations so that files can be accessed by users in branch offices even if a WAN connection fails. PFS is only supported on models 520, 1010, 1020, 1520, 2020, 3010, 3020, 3520, 5010, and 5020.

Key Benefits:

• Additional performance for key enterprise applications
• Incremental to Data Streamlining and Transport Streamlining
• Eliminate up to 98% of transactions required to transfer data
• Enable transparent pre-population, file services, disconnected operations, and more
