WAN Accelerator

Strategic Storage Solutions would like to introduce our new partnership with Silver Peak.  Silver Peak is an industry innovator with their Scalable WAN Accelerator.  Founded in 2004, Silver Peak is a privately held company that develops enterprise-class network appliances for the re-centralization of branch office infrastructure.

Local Instance Networking (LIN) is an innovative approach to WAN acceleration that localizes information delivery, while enabling centralized control of branch office infrastructure.  Silver Peak is the pioneer of this technology, combining local information storage, advanced pattern recognition, compression, Quality of Service (QoS), and latency/loss mitigation techniques into a single enterprise-grade solution

By localizing information delivery, the Silver Peak solution accelerates performance for all enterprise applications, including:

• Bulk TCP applications, such as email (MS Exchange®, IBM Lotus Notes®, SMTP) and file services (CIFS, FTP)
• Bulk UDP applications, such as NFS and TFTP
• Interactive and transactional applications, such as Telnet, Citrix®, Remote Desktop, and SQL
• Real-time and streaming media, including Voice over IP (VoIP) and video distribution.

With Silver Peak, application performance across the WAN is no longer an obstacle to strategic server centralization and server consolidation initiatives.
