YOUR BUSINESS AT THE BRANCH

• Where are your branch sites and data centers?

• Where is your data?

• How do you secure and backup branch data?

• How do you recover from a branch outage?

• What types of applications and services are

required by your branch sites?

• How do you deploy new applications and

(9)

WHAT IF YOU COULD…

Secure and protect 100% of branch data into the data center without

compromising local performance and availability?

Deliver superior performance for all branch apps

(on-premises & SaaS)

across hybrid networks

(MPLS+Internet)

with ease?

Instantly deploy new branch services or entirely new branch sites?

Do all of the above with centralized management out of the data center?

Instantly recover from branch outages with little or no data loss?

“Our frictionless

enterprise has

nearly

tripled our capacity

to deliver projects

of value to the

business.

Riverbed

makes it possible.”

David Giambruno, CIO

A disparate network of 42 owned or

operated broadcast stations that

require high performance now have

100% of their data and servers

consolidated into a software-defined

data center where they are secured,

managed and protected.
