Feature of the Month —
Citrix WANScaler
Accelerating
Application Delivery to the Branch Office
In today’s environment, accessing data is crucial
to the productivity of your employees. With many offices having multiple
locations, branch offices and a mobile workforce, CPR’s engineers
are finding an increased need for accessible, secure and efficient application
delivery methods. One of those methods is the Citrix WanScaler solution.
Citrix WANScaler solutions provide high-performance application delivery to branch office users. WANScalers accelerate application performance across wide area networks (WAN) by an average of 5x to 30x, and up to 300x at peak compression efficiency. With WANScalers in the network, End users in the branch office will experience LAN-line application performance over the WAN which means less time waiting for slow applications and more time using the application.
The AutoOptimizer Engine, which serves as the cornerstone of the WANScaler architecture, offers flexible deployment options: the WANScaler Client software accelerates remote users in home offices and on the road, while users in larger branch offices are supported with WANScaler appliances.
Accelerate
ALL applications over ANY WAN
Citrix WANScaler offers a completely transparent,
end-to-end solution for all IP-based WANs (e.g. private leased lines,
public Internet VPNs, satellite, and wireless WANs). Transparency eliminates
the need for any changes to current network management tools, firewalls,
network services, or applications. The solution supports hundreds of branch
offices and WAN throughput up to 500 Mbps. WANScaler has also been proven
to accelerate SharePoint applications.
A
Simpler, Smarter, Approach to WAN Optimization
Citrix offers a truly network-transparent WAN Optimization solution that
doesn’t rely on disruptive tunneling techniques. This means that
your network monitoring tools, firewalls and applications don’t
need any reconfiguration or modification when the Citrix WANScaler solution
is deployed. It just works.
