Riverbed transforms IT performance by offering solutions spanning wide area network (WAN) optimization, application-aware network performance management (NPM), application delivery controller (ADC (News
- Alert)), web content optimization (WCO), and cloud data protection for backup, archive and disaster recovery.
The company delivers hardware, software and virtualized solutions that overcome performance issues caused by distance, distributed computing, and ever increasing amounts of data. Virtualization, consolidation and cloud computing promise huge cost savings and improved efficiencies, but as users move farther from their data, slow applications and file transfers can stall these strategic initiatives.
It delivers to the remote office and mobile workers the same "local area network (LAN)-like" performance, no matter where the private data center or public cloud may be.
In other company news, TMCnet reported that Riverbed Technology, the IT performance company, is ranked third among large companies on the San Francisco Business Times and Silicon Valley/San Jose Business Journal Best Places to Work in the Bay Area 2011 Awards list.
