Adopting collaboration…
without sacrificing performance
CASE STUDY
Performance gains from the SteelHead appliances were
really impressive. Large files requested from our
SharePoint intranet went from 10 minutes or more down
to just a few seconds on a warm transfer.
“
”– Greg Stimson, financial and program manager, Golder Associates
Although the primary benefit of Web Accelerator is
performance improvement, another is that it has
improved the adoption of the intranet in those
areas where performance originally lagged.
“
”– Greg Stimson, financial and program manager, Golder Associates
REDUCED… SharePoint
load times in South Africa by 3X
INCREASED… adoption of
company’s intranet in the field
AVOIDED… cost of content
mirroring system
REMOVED… restraints to
website development

Adopting cloud infrastructure…
without sacrificing performance
CASE STUDY
It’s very easy to introduce new services to our customers
without needing programmers to develop and implement
them. Mogul is all in on DevOps; and with the help of
virtualization technologies, we are able to treat much of
our infrastructure as code.
This gives us the benefit to deliver new services to our
customers without the need for installing new hardware,
developing custom software, or experiencing service
interruption. SteelApp really helps us with this.
“
”– Johannes Blome, business director of Mogul Cloud Services

Adopting cloud services…
without sacrificing performance
CASE STUDY
Moving to the cloud gave our company more agility.
Cloud SteelHead appliances enable us to save on
costly Internet bandwidth when connecting to
Amazon Cloud, and we have seen an 11x data
reduction ratio for data transferred from our Amazon
Virtual Private Cloud to our end-users.
“
”– Lionel Marie, Network Architect, Schneider Electric
ACHIEVED… Greater agility,
changes in minutes vs months
ELIMINATED… End user
performance issues from cloud
REDUCED… 11x the amount
of data transferred to AWS
IMPLEMENTED…
