This new report is a handbook for successful WAN optimization initiatives. It leads you through each of the steps required to successfully design and implement an optimized WAN architecture capable of delivering what we call "Headquarters-Quality" services to users in remote offices.
WAN optimization is a process, not a technology or a product. This seminar will help you develop a strategy for making that process manageable and effective as new applications and performance demands emerge. Our approach is vendor-neutral and technology-neutral to ensure that you arrive at the best solutions, not necessarily the ones that are the most hyped.
The report includes:
• A four-step process for effectively optimizing and managing WAN performance
• The key factors that determine the effectiveness of WAN optimization initiatives
• The unintended consequences of using some WAN optimization techniques
Key questions are answered such as-Why successful WAN optimization initiatives will require multi-technology strategies that include:
Traffic monitoring & analysis
QoS/bandwidth management
Compression
Caching
Protocol optimization
The best (and worst) practices for implementing WAN optimization
Why latency and bandwidth are very different problems requiring different solutions
The key vendors and how their remote office WAN strategies differ
How to avoid "apples-and-oranges" comparisons between products
An understanding of key compatibility and interoperability issues
How to minimize ongoing administrative costs
Why the "best" solutions may be tactical rather than strategic
Why more bandwidth may not solve many performance problems
How each solution fits into current network infrastructures
