4. Increased number
and complexity of
applications
Narrow view into the all applications on
the global Enterprise WAN
To make informed decisions managers
need to see and understand:
What applications are business-critical?
What is the cost of individual
applications?
What does each application look like &
what new applications have ‘appeared’
on my network?
Where are servers & end-users located?
Market has a limited availability of effective
reporting tools

8. Internet Traffic Explosion
"It is difficult to overestimate the impact of mobile data,
the challenge is to develop a model that makes it
profitable.“ Vodafone Group CEO Vittorio Colao
Internet traffic will grow ten-fold between
now and 2015 (Informa)

12. Video Impact
The average YouTube clip, when downloaded to a
device, is the equivalent of sending 500,000 text
messages
According to Informa:
In 2010, peer-to-peer and online video were neck-and-neck in terms of traffic
In 2011, video will overtake peer-to-peer; by 2015, it will account for over 50%
of all Internet traffic
13. On-line Video is Almost “Must Have”
Online video usage continued it’s drastic growth online and is proving that
video is almost a “must-have” for any content-driven web site. Mobile usage
has also continued it’s explosive growth as demonstrated by users’ continued
adoption of ever expanding technological options. Adoption of smartphone
technology, use of more rapid networks and increased usage of unlimited data
plans has opened up marketer’s options for using mobile as a viable marketing
venue.
14. The next wave – Online Storage
• Apart from online video,
online storage will be the
fastest growing service
• Two big drivers:
Sites most widely
associated with (but
not exclusively used
for) piracy –
Rapidshare,
Megaupload
Increasingly, automatic
back-up services like
Dropbox
• Perhaps of all services,
online storage will be the
one that benefits most from
increased bandwidth,
particularly in the uplink

16. Pain Points Organization are Trying
to Resolve
Pain Point Description
Negative Network User Reduce the number of complaints about the speed of the network and
Experience applications.
Application Performance Are specific applications performing poorly? (ie – business transactions,
Being Compromised VOIP, File Transfers, CRM, backups,
centralization/consolidation/virtualization efforts etc)
Rising Network Costs Am I running out of bandwidth? Do I need a bandwidth upgrade? Do you
have a bandwidth upgrade planned? If so, when? If so, How much?
Decreased Network/User Network inefficiency and how it translates into user productivity. What is
Productivity the time and cost involved in diagnosing a problem and implementing a
solution?
Difficulty in Do you have an inability to diagnose network problems? Is there lack of
Troubleshooting network visibility, lack of information on network usage/bottlenecks.
Non Critical Network Usage Certain users or user groups are eating up the bandwidth which cause
problems for other users. Aggressive applications that don’t serve a critical
function for the organization are taking up the majority of the bandwidth.

17. Exinda Optimization Solutions
Feature Benefit
Application Overcome application layer limitations like chatty inefficient
Optimization (L7) protocol such as CIFS delivering LAN like performance over a
WAN.
TCP Optimization Overcomes the performance and efficiency limitations of TCP
(L4) transport protocol in high latency, lossy environments.
WAN Memory Caching Improve response times, lower bandwidth utilization and defer
(WM) costly bandwidth upgrades by caching frequently accessed data
and sending only changed data across the network. Reduces
amount of data on WAN link and serves data to users at LAN
speeds.
Web Object Caching Improves speed and performance of internet applications. Also
(OM) dramatically reduces use on the WAN circuit by eliminating
download of repetitive content
Compression All non repetitive data patterns are compressed, this interacts with
WAN memory and creates even greater reduction and speed
benefits.

24. What Problem is Edge Cache Solving?
User Experience - Speed Reduced WAN Utilization — Cost
Web objects that have been seen By caching web objects locally,
before and are 'warm' in the cache, organizations can significantly
as well as objects that have been reduce the amount of data
pre-populated, will be delivered to downloaded which can directly
the client much faster than they reduce network costs
would have without the cache.
Improvement in speed dependent The data savings attributed to the
on a number of factors including: cache depends on:
- Available bandwidth; - Type of content on the network;
- Network latency; - Repetitiveness of that content; and
- Size of object; - Number of users on the network
- Utilization of server.
