Silver Peak Reduces the Time to Log Into and Retrieve Information from Oracle CRM

Let your sales and marketing teams access Oracle CRM from any location. Silver Peak accelerates Oracle CRM over distance, making logins immediate and data transfers faster. With Silver Peak, Oracle CRM performs its best at any remote location.

Oracle CRM provides transactional, analytical and engagement features to manage customer-facing operations. Within the local corporate network, Oracle can be very responsive, but across distance Oracle CRM performance often suffers. Logging into Oracle CRM from remote offices, as well as printing reports or refreshing dashboards, may take too long for users. Replicating Oracle CRM databases offsite may fail to complete within the organization's Recovery Point Objectives (RPOs).

The problem is not Oracle CRM; it’s the underlying network. The delay resulting from long distance, routing policies, and peering practices across  wide area networks (WANs) degrade the performance of any centralized application over distance. Throughput is further limited by the higher incidents of packet loss and out-of-order packets on those networks.

Silver Peak addresses these problems enabling Oracle CRM to perform its best at every location. Customers have eliminated 85 percent and more of Oracle CRM data from their WAN. More specifically, Silver Peak applies these technologies to the following challenges:

  • Bandwidth – Silver Peak byte-level deduplication and compression remove more than 85 percent of redundant Oracle CRM data from the WAN. The first time Oracle CRM sends data it is fingerprinted and compressed by Silver Peak. Subsequent requests are fulfilled by the local Silver Peak instance. 
  • Latency – Silver Peak mitigates latency enabling Oracle CRM to operate more efficiently over distance TCP Acceleration includes windows scaling, selective acknowledgements, and HighSpeed TCP. CIFS Acceleration includes CIFS read-ahead, CIFS write-behind, and CIFS metadata optimizations. Latency is also reduced through packet coalescing, which re-packages multiple smaller packets into a single larger one, and through Dynamic Path Control, which selects the fastest path to a remote location.
  • Congestion – Silver Peak makes Oracle CRM performance more predictable across congested WANs. Lost packets are reconstituted in real-time at the far end of a WAN link, avoiding delays that come with multiple round-trip retransmissions. Out-of-order packets are resequenced, avoiding retransmission and processing delays that occur when packets arrive out-of-order.

Silver Peak protects Oracle CRM data in-flight between locations with an Accelerated IPSec virtual private network (VPN) running AES-256, the enterprise standard for data encryption. Data-at-rest within Silver Peak instances is also encrypted with AES. End-to-end encryption is provided by SSL/TLS.

  • Oracle E-Business is an integrated suite of applications for the enterprise that relies on an Oracle Database as the backend and a Web frontend. Oracle E-Business may perform well within an office, but performance often deteriorates across a wide area network (WAN). This application performance brief highlights how Silver Peak improves the performance of Oracle E-Business over the WAN. 
  • This white paper examines the requirements for optimizing SaaS and how Silver Peak's Unity WAN fabric gives IT the visibility and control that has been missing while giving users the performance they need.
  • Users in branch offices and remote offices have traditionally had a difficult time accessing files stored in remote data centers. The Windows file system relies on CIFS/SMB a chatty protocol that performs poorly over the WAN. Silver Peak corrects CIFS chattiness, accelerating the transfer of data to the branch office or remote office. This document explains how Silver Peak enable centrally managed file services to dramatically improve branch office and remote office productivity.

  • Server consolidation reduces costs, but it also introduces network challenges that left unaddressed can undermine business processes. Just ask SMTC, a global electronics manufacturing services provider. The company had successfully consolidated servers into its Markham, Ontario data center, but as the company’s WAN become more congested, essential business applications – ERP, CRM, and more – became unusable.
