Microsoft SharePoint is quickly becoming a “must have” application. But, while it fosters collaboration within increasingly distributed workforces, IT does not appear to have much control over it. Many SharePoint implementations are mission critical, yet access to these sites is often thwarted by poor network performance. Similar to Microsoft Exchange and other collaboration applications, companies deploying SharePoint can benefit from WAN optimization solutions, including those offered by Riverbed, an ACM strategic partner. Riverbed will ensure that these collaboration applications make the most of their productivity and information sharing capabilities.

Riverbed Technology is a leading provider of WAN optimization technology (branch office, data center, and mobile worker acceleration). Solely focused on providing customers with solutions that enable faster, more efficient IT infrastructure, Riverbed has already helped more than 5,000 customers improve their busienss and accelerate critical business applications. Not only will SharePoint implementations benefit from Riverbed solutions, but any applications that need to be accessed remotely will improve as well. Steelhead appliances have also been instrumental in providing robust data protection and disaster recovery environments, including the enhanced security of encrypting data in flight.
