Cisco Wide Area Application Services: Secure, Scalable, and Simple Central Management
Overview IT organizations are challenged with conflicting requirements: to consolidate costly remote-office infrastructure and to maintain adequate service levels for remote-office users. Cisco Wide Area Application Services (WAAS) provides the technologies necessary to consolidate infrastructure in the data center while also providing application acceleration and WAN optimization capabilities that achieve application delivery performance similar to that of a LAN. Any broad-scale IT consolidation project should result in a simplified, lower-cost infrastructure that is easier to manage and maintain. Through Cisco WAAS, Cisco provides a secure, scalable, and simple central management framework that allows IT organizations to easily manage a consolidated infrastructure that uses Cisco WAAS for application acceleration and WAN optimization. This paper describes the features and benefits of the management components of Cisco WAAS.
