WAN Optimization

Expanding organizations are challenged with two important and competing needs: how to optimize their network response time while adopting new business applications and how to reduce costs at the same time. When using more bandwidth-heavy applications such as video or virtual desktops, across increasingly larger areas, organizations will experience increased bandwidth consumption, cost, and communications latency.

Besides latency concerns for traffic traveling across countries and continents, companies must also consider the mobile nature of their users and potential cost savings by consolidating data centers. WAN optimization is a category of tools that can help companies address these needs.

NFF partners with Cisco to help businesses build and grow their expanded networks with Cisco® Wide Area Application Services (WAAS), a set of cost-effective WAN optimization solutions that accelerate applications over the WAN, provide local hosting of branch-office IT services, optimize end-user experiences, and reduce bandwidth and latency problems. NFF WAAS solution:

• Provides enhanced end-user experience and overall business productivity by doubling effective bandwidth and reducing latency
• Integrates into existing network infrastructure, providing the most flexible deployment options in the industry
