Cloud Products
Whitewater Appliance
The Whitewater appliance, introduced in November 2010, is designed to optimize backup data as it is sent from a backup application (e.g. Symantec NetBackup or Backup Exec) into a public storage cloud. The 1.0 release works with Amazon AWS; later releases will support other cloud providers. Whitewater is a single-ended appliance; data is deduplicated, compressed, and encrypted with AES-256 on the Whitewater appliance and then sent across the WAN to the storage cloud provider for long-term storage in that form.
Cloud Steelhead
The Cloud Steelhead appliance, also introduced in November 2010, provides WAN optimization for traffic going between users or an enterprise data center and a public cloud. Currently Amazon Web Services’ Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) and Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) environments.

Famous quotes containing the words cloud and/or products:
“Let chaos storm!
Let cloud shapes swarm!
I wait for form.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“It seemed there was a sort of poisoning, an auto-infection of the organisms, so Dr. Krokowski said; it was caused by the disintegration of a substance ... and the products of this disintegration operated like an intoxicant upon the nerve-centres of the spinal cord, with an effect similar to that of certain poisons, such as morphia, or cocaine.”
—Thomas Mann (1875–1955)
