Fin Firms Deployed Riverbed’s Steelhead for Fast Operation of Microsoft Apps over WANS
Warburg Pincus LLC, and Greenhill & Co. have purchased and deployed Riverbed's Steelhead(R) wide-area data services (WDS) appliances to enable global collaboration and IT consolidation in their fast-paced, email- and document-intensive work environments. With globally integrated operations, these financial services organizations must have immediate access to data that impacts the financial health of corporations worldwide.
Steelhead appliances are based on the Riverbed Optimization System (RiOS(TM)), which accelerates all TCP-based applications, including common applications like Windows file sharing, MAPI, Microsoft SQL and DPM, NetApp's SnapMirror, Symantec's NetBackup and FTP, while adding incremental application-specific latency optimizations to minimize the impact of latency on key applications.
