Application Acceleration and WAN Optimization Fundamentals (Paperback)

IT organizations face pressure to increase productivity, improve
application performance, support global collaboration, improve data
protection, and minimize costs. In today's WAN-centered environments,
traditional LAN-oriented infrastructure approaches are insufficient to
meet these goals. Application Acceleration and WAN Optimization
Fundamentals introduces a better solution: integrating today's new
generation of accelerator solutions to efficiently and effectively scale
networks beyond traditional capabilities while improving performance and
minimizing costs through consolidation.

Ted Grevers and Joel Christner begin by reviewing the challenges network
professionals face in delivering applications to globally distributed
workforces. You learn how accelerators are transforming application
business models, enabling IT departments to centralize and consolidate
resources while also delivering consistently superior performance.

Grevers and Christner show how to identify network consumers, prioritize
traffic, and guarantee appropriate throughput and response times to
business-critical applications. You learn how to use quality of service
techniques such as packet classification and marking and traffic
policing, queuing, scheduling, and shaping.

Next, you compare options for integrating accelerators and optimization
services into your network and for optimizing content delivery. The
authors show how to address application protocol-related performance
problems that cannot be resolved through compression or flow
optimization alone. In the final chapter, the authors walk you through
several real-world scenarios for utilizing accelerator technology.

Ted Grevers, Jr., is the solution manager for the Cisco(r) Video IPTV
Systems Test and Architecture (C-VISTA) team. He has extensive
experience in the content delivery network (CDN) market, focusing on
enterprise and service provider content delivery and application
optimization needs.

Joel Christner, CCIE(r) No. 15311, is the manager of technical marketing
for the Cisco Application Delivery Business Unit (ADBU). He has
extensive experience with application protocols, acceleration
technologies, LAN/WAN infrastructure, and storage networking. Grevers
and Christner are key contributors to the design and architecture of
Cisco application delivery and application acceleration solutions.
