2 2 The Leader in Application Delivery Networking Users Data Center At Home In the Office On the Road Application Delivery Network SAP Microsoft Oracle Business Goal: Achieve These Objectives in the Most Operationally Efficient Manner

3 3 Traditional Infrastructure Model Corporate Employees Mobile Employees Remote Employees Branch Employees Customer, Partners, or Suppliers How do I connect all these applications and services to the right people, at the right moment in time, using the right amount of resources, meet all my SLAs, ensure security and save money? Cloud Services Hosted Applications Corporate SAAS Data Center Branch Apps and Data

4 4 Filling the Gap: Creating a Dynamic Infrastructure Corporate Employees LAN & wlan Mobile Employees Remote Employees Branch Employees LAN & wlan Customer, Partners, or Suppliers Intercept Dynamic Infrastructure Model Interpret Instruct Cloud Services Hosted Applications Corporate SAAS Apps and Data Data Center in the Branch

5 5 Functions of Dynamic Infrastructure Traffic redirection, data placement, security, performance, provisioning Synchronize distributed points of control Intelligence Application and data streams Device presentation Target / Initiator Put in context of who, what, when, where, and how Relate to business policy Determine appropriate response

6 6 How Do You Solve These Issues? Multiple Point Solutions Application More Bandwidth Network Administrator Application Developer Add more infrastructure? Hire an army of developers?
