Relationship To WAN Optimization
The performance and productivity benefits of wide area networking (WAN) optimization solutions have been well established within distributed enterprises. However, how WAN optimization is implemented within a virtual machine infrastructure is critical to realizing these benefits within enterprises deploying virtualization and cloud computing. Supporting WAN optimization within a virtual machine infrastructure as a virtual appliance enables IT managers to meet their consolidation goals and at the same time reap the benefits of lower application response time and network bandwidth utilization, and reduced costs related to WAN optimization. Software-based WAN optimization virtual appliances are an excellent alternative to single-purpose hardware appliances, and enable high performance, agile and cost-effective WANs which can act as solid foundations for those enterprises and managed service providers considering virtualization and cloud computing.
Many WAN optimization virtual appliances (Certeon, Replify, Silver Peak Systems etc.) have been certified by VMware.
