MAPI Application Optimizer Solution

Challenge

 Full application support  Asynchronous Writes  Read Ahead  Messages Decompression DRE hints  EndPoint Mapper

 Uses MS-RPC - chatty protocol.  Exchanges many interactive control messages  MAPI traffic is negotiated using MS Port Mapper (port 135) and is using dynamic ports  Data encoding is negotiated by client/server

Benefit  Reduced send/receive time – key for Outlook 2000 users  Cleans up the outbox faster – important for cached mode users  Faster downloads of OAB, while significantly reducing BW consumption  Optimizes native Outlook 2007 operations (disable encryption on server)  Transparent, automatic optimization  No reverse engineering (MSFT licensing)  No security hole of keeping sessions open even after users have logged out

CIFS Application Optimizer: CIFS AO Challenge  "chatty" protocols  WAN’s high latency, packet loss, and bandwidth constraints significantly diminishes Server access

Solution  File and Metadata caching  Read-ahead  Message pipelining  Scheduled preposition to pre-populate  Transparent integration  Dedicated CIFS cache

• 2MB Word document open, results in over 1000 message exchanges. • 40ms RTT WAN, equates to more than 52 seconds of wait time before the document is usable

Windows Printing Application Optimizer Branch Office

Challenge

Local Printer

 MS Print protocol uses RPC - very “chatty”  As A result over WAN it degrades exponentially as latency increases

Solution

Print job sent to printer WAN

Print job sent to Windows server

 Based on licensed MS Print Protocols  Optimized access to print queue status and printer settings  Bi-directional Acceleration  Printer and Queue meta-data caching  Async write  DRE hints for enhanced payload compression  MS-RPC message optimization  RPC command fragments handled asynchronously  Delayed close of printer handles (OPEN requests local)

Benefit

Windows Print Servers Presentation_ID

Data Center

 Users print at near-LAN speeds  No need for Network IT group to manage Branch Print  No configuration on WAAS – just turn it on!  Enable scalable centralized Windows Print services  Fully Transparent to Windows AD Management  Easy server migration from branch to datacenter

NFSv3 Application Optimizer Solution

Challenge

 Read-Ahead  Asynchronous write  DRE hints  Meta-data caching

 In Unix, NFS protocol is used for large file exchange such as software builds, CAD applications and large directory access  NFSv3 is a “chatty” RPC protocol  Clients cannot efficiently operate on high-latency/highbandwidth WANs

Benefit  Can fill high-bandwidth links regardless of latency  Transparent to client and server. No configuration required.  Tested for compliance with IBM AIX, Linux and Solaris clients + Leading NAS vendors!

 Slow page load on Interactive Web applications  Browsers serially open and close connections to fetch small objects (e.g graphics)  Latency due to HTTP request/response

Benefit  Mitigates latency due to HTTP request/response  Fully transparent  Reuse of same pair of client and server requests  Compliments and preserves http application pipelining
