The Evolution of Network Acceleration Technology

=This article is a discussion of the evolution of network acceleration technology. The article looks at the changes in the network acceleration industry from AT&T’s release of the first commercial modem in 1960 to today’s wide area networks (WANs), that are expected to carry an unprecedented amount of multimedia data with ease and finesse.

How Cloud-Based WAN Acceleration Became the New Normal

WAN acceleration technology has been widely used for years to accelerate traffic across wide area networks. These accelerators use local caches to improve data access and performance. Though WAN acceleration has been available for years, it’s time for it to evolve. Today’s cloud-based applications coupled with a mobile workforce demand performance improvements. At the same time, virtualization requires additional bandwidth.
