What are some of the common MYTHS about WAN
Optimization?
2
Implementing WAN optimization has become one of
the top 5 IT goals, which provides tremendous
value through the reduction of bandwidth and by
enhancing the application performance for the
chatty applications. But the traditional WAN
optimization was delivered a s a high-cost
symmetric appliance solution.
3
WAN optimization appliances which were restricted
to a couple of vendors, are now available from
multiple vendors and in various sizes. Some of
the top myths about the WAN optimization include
4
Organizations think that they dont need WAN
optimization because they are of the opinion that
bandwidth can solve all the problems related to
application performance. Well, it is completely
false.
5
Organizations may believe that WAN optimization
is not a perfect fit because their traffic is
real-time or encrypted. Well, this is really
outdated because with the innovation of WAN
Optimization market, the true global private
networks have emerged, serving as a backbone for
other services.
6
Organizations are of the opinion that WAN
Optimization is possible on-premises with an
appliance. But literally, it has become a thing
of the past. There are many alternatives that
exist today in order to deliver WAN optimization
as a cloud-based OpEx service and that too
without any upfront investment.
7
The WAN Optimization Appliances are one time
investment. This is obviously false and the
customers realize it after they buy their
appliances and install them.
8
WAN Optimization virtual appliances are cheap.
Though they might be cheaper, the high cost is
about more than the box. An optimization
appliance is an appliance, and even a virtual one
requires resources like memory, processing, and
storage in order to execute the process for which
it is designed.
9
So while keeping these points in mind, I can say
Today, the definition of WAN has changed
considerably, as now WAN includes mobile workers,
web applications, cloud services, partners and
customers.
