Optimising Web Application Performance
Improve web application performance and reduce costs in the data centre

Web acceleration can help you dramatically improve web page response times by compressing traffic and reducing server loads. This type of acceleration often lowers costs in the data centre and provides better web application performance and a better user experience--on any network, using any combination of devices. F5's web acceleration technology is designed to overcome WAN latency and performance issues for browsers and web-based applications by decreasing download times, offloading servers and reducing bandwidth usage. As a result, it improves user productivity and satisfaction.

Maximizing Your WAN Performance
Optimize and Accelerate Your Mission-Critical Applications Across the WAN

Providing data and application access to users in the right place, at the right time, is essential to meeting the demands of your business. However, network and application issues on the WAN can cause long delays for users at remote sites, disrupting user productivity and your organization’s ability to achieve its business goals.

Application performance on the WAN is affected by a large number of factors that cannot be solved by adding bandwidth alone. The natural behaviour of application protocols that were not designed for WAN conditions, application protocols that engage in excessive handshaking, the serialization of the applications themselves and latency can all limit performance.

F5’s WAN optimization technology can significantly improve performance between distant data centres and offices, particularly for data replication and between large sites. Our solutions deliver predictable, fast, LAN-like performance over the WAN, accelerating many types of applications, including file transfer, email, and client-server applications

Disaster Recovery And Business Continuity

Successful businesses expect the unexpected, and they plan for it. Network outages, hardware failures, and natural disasters can all jeopardize an otherwise healthy business, putting critical data at risk, interrupting services, and causing significant revenue loss.

Due to heightened risks, fiduciary responsibilities, increased competition, and regulation, upgrading your disaster recovery capabilities is a top priority for all enterprises. Enterprises have historically relied on off-site tape vaulting for disaster recovery, but today a growing number of enterprises use more sophisticated disaster recovery solutions such as data replication between data centres and major sites. These enterprises now face a two-pronged challenge -- determining the best alternative to optimize the performance of the replication solutions they already have in order to achieve better recovery time and recovery point objective, as well as extending these solutions to cover critical remote sites at a reasonable cost. In many instances, issues related to wide-area network (WAN) connectivity between sites are key limitations to achieving these goals.

F5's solutions can help you create a strong business continuity and disaster recovery plan--so you can be prepared for seamless, uninterrupted operation and avoid excessive downtime and reduced productivity
