Cisco intros WAAS appliances
Cisco has introduced the next generation of its Wide Area Application Services (WAAS) appliances - the Cisco family of WAN (wide area network) optimization solutions. The Company is aiming to serve its customers deliver more Web-based software applications and rich media content across networks at scale and with high quality to any user and device.
The new Cisco WAAS appliances help customers improve application performance for bandwidth-heavy applications such as virtual desktops, cloud services, video and mobile devices at branch locations. The new appliances also help organizations substantially improve the user experience across their entire network infrastructure by providing up to five times the bandwidth and supporting up to three times the users than the previous generation.
Mahesh Gupta, VP, Borderless Networks, Cisco India & SAARC said, "According to a worldwide Nemertes Research, 90 percent of employees do not work at headquarter locations; therefore, assuring acceptable application delivery to branch-office employees over the WAN is of utmost importance to IT managers. Today's organizations are packing more networked devices as the demand for anytime, anywhere, any-device network access with video weaved into it has become a workplace mandate across all sectors. The Cisco WAVE (Wide Area Virtualization Engine) family of WAN optimization solutions provides all these capabilities."
