The top 3 goals of IT organizations5
Reduce costs - impact bottom line profits and find budget: Focus on your TCO, capital and operational expenses Reduce expenses on monthly network operating Defer network upgrades More efficiently use IT resources
Mitigate risk - Protect against unplanned service outages and ensuing loss: Focus on your cost of downtime and negative impact on reputation Protect more data in available windows Eliminate costly and risky backup in all your branches Enable faster disaster recovery
Increase worker productivity - boost top line revenue and business achievements: Focus on the ROI and NPV Speed up applications Enable collaboration Let your IT staff be strategic

Consolidation
Problem: How to simplify and cut costs from IT infrastructure by centralizing servers and storage, WITHOUT compromising end user performance.
Solution: WAN optimization for consolidation project success• Accelerated connections to centralized application, email and file servers• Reduced cost in hardware and management of remote sites• Increased efficiency and utilization of IT infrastructure• Reduced risk with data consolidated into secure sites• Improved compliance with industry and government security regulations

Virtualization
Problem: Server and desktop virtualization projects success can suffer from issues of bandwidth, latency, and added load on the WAN.
Solution: Avoid the performance pitfalls of virtualization.• Accelerate application & service delivery to (now remote) end users.• Improve response time and enable QoS for virtual desktops.• Move virtual machines quickly for operational flexibility.• Increase disaster recovery capabilities by swiftly replicating virtual machines.• Do all of the above while saving on networking costs.

Data protection use cases
Problem: How to protect data with an effective DR strategy covering storage growth, network limitations, and many sites.
Solution: Protect more data, recovery faster, and reduce costs with DR specific optimizations.
Centralize backup• Backup over WAN
» Eliminate tapes and hardware in branch offices, reduce costs & reduce risk• Consolidate servers and backup within datacenter
» Centralize storage operations, without impacting branch user performance Improve replication
• Branch-data center or data center-data center» Defer network bandwidth upgrades, by reducing utilization and overcoming latency » Shorten time required which lets you shorten windows or protect more data» Reduce impact on other WAN applications, by freeing up bandwidth

Willis Group
Background• Global insurance company (16,000 employees)• Distributed IT environment costly to maintain• Deployed 100+ Steelhead appliances around the
world Results
• Consolidated two data centers into one• Consolidated 200 major applications and several
thousand small applications into one location (including Microsoft Exchange)
• Removed IT infrastructure from many international offices
Key benefits• Projected cost savings of $30 million over five years• Improved employee access to information globally
“An increasing amount of our international offices no longer need local IT professionals or significant local infrastructure.”
- Eoghan Doyle, director of infrastructure and operations

Citigroup
Background• 4,000 branches worldwide• Data protection mandate -- backup tapes were lost by tape storage
vendor• Eliminate the deployment of branch office servers• Ensure consistent application performance in any location
Results• NetApp SnapMirror backup -- 22.65 hrs to 3.43 hrs• Up to 99% data reduction on SnapMirror replication• Oracle backups completed 5x faster
“Riverbed was the only vendor who was even capable of integrating their product into our complex environment.
We selected Riverbed based on their leading performance, superiormanageability, high security and very high responsiveness.”

Application Streamlining
Solution• Optimize WAN bandwidth utilization• Prioritize applications’ bandwidth use• Accelerate large-scale disaster recovery jobs
• Eliminate transport protocol inefficiencies• Support secure traffic acceleration (SSL)
• Optimize application WAN performance• Reduce protocol chatiness
• Enable transparent deployment• Provide additional best-of-breed services• Facilitate central management and reporting
Eliminate bandwidth constraints 5x more bandwidth, no additional network costs
Make it simple to deploy and manage

Data streamlining overcomes bandwidth limitations
ReconstructedFiles & Data
RequestFiles & Data
Steelhead auto-intercepts response, and segments data “De-dupes” data so only new bytes compressed & sent over the WAN
Requests go directly from the client to the server
DATA CENTER BRANCH OFFICE
16-Byte references represent megabytes of warm data Remote Steelhead reconstructs data and delivers it to the client Works bi-directionally, cross-protocol and across applications
