Riverbed and VMware preview LAN Performance

Riverbed has announced a solution preview at VMworld 2012 in partnership with VMware that demonstrates remote and branch office deployments of VMware View. The technology preview will showcase the delivery of local area networks (LAN) performance in disturbed VMware View environments, including Branch Office Desktop (BOD) and Business Process Desktop (BPD) solutions, while preserving control in the data center. The showcase combines Riverbed Granite edge virtual server infrastructure (edge-VSI) with VMware View. 

"By furthering our partnership with Riverbed, we will deliver a solution that can provide a consistent experience to end-users over any distance, allowing organizations to realize the full benefit of VMware View environments, while enabling reliable performance, efficiency and productivity - all at a lower cost," said Vittorio Viarengo, Vice-President, End-User Computing, VMware.

John Martin, Sr. Vice-President, Product Management, Riverbed, said, "Enterprises demand LAN performance regardless of where their IT infrastructure, data or end-users are located. This collaborative effort by Riverbed and VMware helps organizations provide users with a seamless experience when accessing their desktop, applications and data by accelerating performance regardless of location."
