WAN ACCELERATION
WAN optimisation products seek to accelerate applications accessed by distributed enterprise users via eliminating redundant transmissions (de-duplication), staging data in local caches, compressing and prioritising data, and streamlining chatty protocols. WAN optimisation also helps avoid packet delivery issues common in shared WAN environments, like MPLS and Internet VPNs.
Bermuda’s high connectivity costs make WAN acceleration necessity. CCS has partner with the leaders in WAN acceleration. CCS can install, optimise and support both Riverbed and Cisco WAN acceleration appliances and software solutions.
