Accelerate Your Applications in the Data Center

Empowering employees (and partners)

Explore new technologies and evaluate solutions that enable you to provide LAN-like performance for your branch offices. More details coming soon!


You face pressure to centralize data and applications so you can reduce costs, simplify IT management, and increase security. Meanwhile, your branch offices and remote users are demanding faster access to mission-critical resources.

Now, discover simple, affordable data center solutions that will enable you to accomplish both objectives.

Learn how even small and medium-sized businesses can consolidate data while accelerating end-user access speed by as much as 500 percent without adding bandwidth. See how the latest Cisco data center solutions can help you drive down costs, enhance security, and increase the value of your network by allowing you to:

• Create secure, flexible, available storage area networks (SANs) off a single expandable switch
• Overcome WAN latency and bandwidth limitations to give branch offices and distant users LAN-like speed
• Perform critical software updates to your switches without stopping traffic or waiting for a non?existent maintenance window.

How do you provide LAN like performance to your branch office when the technology consistently demands consolidation into a central location? In this Data Center edition of TechWiseTV we will explore incredible new technologies that will highlight the inadequacy of today's attempts to accelerate application performance. Do we move the data closer to the end user? Not always possible. Do we continue to spend endlessly to rewrite and attempt to optimize code when the applications continue to change underneath us and the performance gains do not equal the time and money spent? Perhaps we continue to compress the uncompressible into a foolish attempt at increased efficiency that ultimately only wastes time and capital.

We will fully explore the most common options available on the market today and arrive at the key questions you need to be asking to understand the ability of your environment to do this correctly and how you should evaluate any potential solutions.

Join us and learn how to:

• Consolidate and centralize costly server and storage resources in your data center while giving remote users fast access
• Provide LAN?like performance over your WAN without adding more servers and bandwidth
• Minimize distance?imposed and protocol?imposed latency
