WAN Optimization Solutions from iTrinegy

iTrinegy Optimizer offers ISPs, enterprises and SMEs true end-to-end network optimization from the data centre to the branch offices and beyond to the mobile users. Its modular open systems compliant architecture allows it to transparently amalgamate with existing systems and fill in any gaps where required.

 

A Modular Approach to Suit Your Budget

iTrinegy Optimizer operates in both the WAN Optimization and Application Delivery Controller arenas.  Application Delivery Controller (ADC) solutions sit in front of the server and optimize Web-based applications for both employees of the business and its partners.  A distinct advantage of iTrinegy’s WAN optimization solution is that it frequently only requires a single central unit to make a huge impact on network performance as opposed to competing solutions that typically must have a unit on either side of the link in order to even function driving up the implementation costs in the process.

 

With a single iTrinegy appliance you can gain control and optimize traffic to all branch offices. Based on detailed reports gleaned from that unit you can decide which technologies to deploy at which remote sites in order to gain maximum benefit and further optimization.

 

WAN Optimization can frequently can achieved with only one iTrinegy Optimizer Appliance

Where appropriate, further iTrinegy Optimizer appliances can be deployed between the main HQ and branch offices to provide additional capabilities such as compression and caching.

 

Delivering LAN Performance over the WAN

iTrinegy Optimizer turns a sluggish WAN into a LAN like performance. Reducing the volume of data being sent across the network, the number of round trips being used by chatty protocols, congestion on the network, and the effects of packet loss and jitter on the traffic which result in retransmissions. iTrinegy’s Optimizer works across all typical transport networks, with additional benefits in MPLS and satellite networks.

 

Not so long ago, the WAN was the exclusive domain of frame-relay communication and leased lines. Today, a WAN may use anything from IPSec connections and cable modems to MPLS (multiprotocol label switching) tunnelled over multimegabit networks. The methods may have changed, but the challenge remains the same: How do you make a WAN operate like one big LAN?

 

Simply throwing more bandwidth at the problem of latency won’t solve it. Today's businesses are running business-critical and time-sensitive applications that require guaranteed bandwidth allocation and performance. MPLS has been touted as the fix and can go some way toward improving WAN performance, but the root cause of the problem lies well below the MPLS level.  Latency, congestion, chatty applications, and traffic contention all affect the WAN’s latency and responsiveness.

 

It’s about Latency not just Bandwidth

Many have updated their WAN connections to 10, 45, 100 Mb so they can quickly transfer their critical files to the other side of the world only to find they aren’t getting any better throughput than they had before. Unfortunately increasing the bandwidth doesn’t help. Long fat networks (LFNs) run at T1 speeds and higher, but suffer greatly from the inherent latency of the link. The problem is that the protocols’ efficiency suffers as latency increases. TCP, for example, uses ACK (acknowledgement) packets to help provide reliability. But on high-latency links, waiting for ACKs chokes throughput. Thus, latency is one of the biggest — if not the biggest — killer of WAN performance, both in response time and overall throughput.

 

iTrinegy Optimizer utilizes various technologies to ensure you get the most out of your WAN at all times including the following:

 

Ultimately iTrinegy Optimizer uses a combination of these technologies to ensure maximum link performance. 

In addition, iTrinegy Optimizer offers enterprises the following:
