  • Shared Wide Area Networks (WANs), like MPLS and Internet VPNs, are prone to network congestion during periods of heavy utilization. When different traffic is vying for limited shared resources, packets inevitably will be dropped or delivered out of order, a concept known as “packet loss”.

  • Bandwidth, congestion, latency, and dropped packets are all common challenges associated with replicating data across an IP Wide Area Network (WAN). Any one of these problems can impede replication processes or prevent them from happening entirely. These issues can also increase WAN infrastructure and support costs, which have a significant impact on the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) for offsite data protection

  • IBM Lotus Notes® and Domino® are robust platforms for enterprise collaboration, including a wide variety of tools for messaging and directory services, discussion, calendaring, and document management services. While the IBM Lotus family was designed for deployment across distributed enterprises, there are inherent challenges associated with collaborating across a Wide Area Network, including poor application response time and excessive bandwidth usage. These are solved using Silver Peak’s data acceleration software.
