The Silver Peak Virtual WAN Optimization Marketplace allows anyone to
choose from the industry's broadest portfolio of virtual appliances running
on the broadest range of hypervisors, including VMware vSphere, Citrix Xen,
and Microsoft Hyper-V. The Silver Peak VX and VRX virtual appliances range
from megabits-per-second (Mbps) to gigabits-per-second (Gbps) in WAN
capacity. The Marketplace includes common use cases for the Silver Peak
products, a download section to obtain license keys and software images,
installation videos, and an for interaction with Silver Peak
experts and other WAN optimization users.
"When Silver Peak announced our Virtual Acceleration Open Architecture
(VXOA) eight months ago, the company promised to change how WAN
optimization was packaged, priced and delivered," said Rick Tinsley,
president and CEO of Silver Peak. "Today, we add another major milestone
in making that vision a reality. The Virtual WAN Op Marketplace removes
all barriers-to-entry for WAN optimization and gives anyone instant access
to WAN optimization up to and including our VRX product featuring a full 1
Gbps -- 20x the capacity of the closest competitor at one-third the price
of equivalent hardware appliances."
The introduction of the Marketplace follows growing adoption of Silver
Peak's VXOA and skyrocketing demand for the recently released Silver Peak
VX-X, a free fully-functional virtual WAN optimizer that has been
downloaded more than 7,000 times in just five months. Silver Peak VXOA
powers the entire family of Silver Peak VX and VRX virtual WAN optimization
appliances. It is an open architecture that facilitates the most
cost-effective WAN optimization deployments on a wide variety of industry
standard hardware platforms and hypervisors.
Tinsley added, "The cost-saving benefits of virtualization both from an
acquisition and operations perspective are obvious. What was not so
obvious when we started down this path was just how ready the market is for
virtual WAN Op. The overwhelming success of the VX-X download program and
accompanying demand for access to the full portfolio drove the creation of
the Marketplace."
"Without Silver Peak, the Veeam replication jobs would simply not finish at
all," said , who was replicating
virtual machines from Texas to Georgia in the United States. "Silver Peak
enables the job to complete, plus makes it happen in a timely manner."
"I can actually create any WAN environment imaginable and fix (and improve)
it with the VX VMs," said IT reseller . "In addition to
demonstrations, I can do countless 'what-if' scenarios to test out
possibilities. After I am done, I can then move the entire demo to the
next customer!"
"Our remote sites suffer around 600ms of latency across the satellite so
this makes it very hard to get data in and out of the remote sites," said
. "I have been very
impressed with the ease of install and performance of VX and would highly
recommend it to anyone looking at improving their WAN links."
