HP Storageworks Enterprise File Services (EFS) WAN Accelerator White Paper: Leading-Edge Performance for Distributed Infrastructure

Overview The benefits of IT resource consolidation are: lower IT costs, easier management, improved security, reliable backup. HP StorageWorks Enterprise File Services (EFS) WAN Accelerators improve the throughput of existing distributed infrastructure by as much as 100 times, meaning enterprises can experience LAN-like application performance even on wide area networks (WANs). Distributed teams can get updated files in seconds or minutes instead of hours. If IT resource consolidation is the goal, HP technology can be the key enabler to centralizing all of server resources at the main datacenter. If backup of data at remote sites is one of the mission critical processes, EFS WAN Accelerators allow to perform backups over the WAN within existing backup windows without upgrading WAN links.
