Audio White Paper: F5 BIG-IP WAN Optimization Module in Data Replication Environments

Data loads are constantly on the rise: where transmissions once included only plain-text email and a few static web hits, people now send rich text email, dynamic web pages including multiple AJAX requests per page, replication data, and a host of other data types.  Replication data in particular is critical, especially to businesses. Businesses need their replication data to arrive at the appropriate destination, in a timely manner and with no doubt of delivery. The slower and less reliable your replication is, the less useful it is to your original purpose.  Using the F5® BIG‑IP® WAN Optimization Module™ (WOM), enterprises can increase efficiency, decrease backup windows, offload encryption, and improve wide area network throughput to distributed data centers.  Running Time: 22:36  Read full white paper here.  And click here for more F5 Audio.

Audio White Paper: Optimize and Accelerate Applications across the WAN

Although networks have improved over time, application traffic has increased at an alarming rate. Bandwidth-efficient client server applications have been replaced with bandwidth-demanding web applications, which can put a strain on your infrastructure.  Where previous-generation client server transactions involved tens of kilobytes of data, rich web-based portal applications can transfer hundreds of kilobytes per transaction—and with the explosion of social media and video, megabytes per transaction is not uncommon.  This bandwidth-hungry society, in which people often watch videos right on their mobile devices, can have both a financial and technical effect on the infrastructure needed to deliver such large pieces of content.  Maximize your network and application delivery with WAN optimization.  Running Time: 20:50  Read full white paper here.  And click here for more F5 Audio.

Audio White Paper: Understanding Advanced Data Compression

Nearly all WAN optimization appliances store and use previously transferred network data to achieve high compression ratios, while leveraging advanced compression routines to improve application performance. How they achieve these gains, and the limitations of certain routines, vary widely and can significantly impact the improvements and benefits associated with WAN application delivery services.  This White Paper describes how F5's BIG-IP WAN Optimization Module and TDR technology improves application performance.  Running Time: 16:55  Read full white paper here.  And click here for more F5 Audio.
