Riverbed
Technology announced new features for Riverbed
SteelApp Traffic Manager, claimed to be the #1 virtual application delivery
controller (ADC). As companies evolve toward the hybrid enterprise
model with private assets on-premises and public services in the
cloud, they face new performance challenges -- including greater
architectural complexity and blind spots for support, management and
security. Riverbed SteelApp Traffic Manager 9.7 addresses these
challenges, enabling the hybrid enterprise to access and deliver
applications quickly, securely and cost effectively.
“Companies
are going hybrid in droves, extending their data centers to the
cloud, and then often struggling with complexity and performance
challenges. Customers buy Riverbed’s SteelApp ADC for the
intelligent load balancing of app traffic across the hybrid
enterprise and for web optimization to accelerate applications in the
cloud,” said Taj ElKhayat, Managing Director for Middle East,
Turkey, North, West and Central Africa, Riverbed Technology.
“Riverbed SteelApp Traffic Manager 9.7 now delivers greater
protection against the latest app-level attacks and simpler
manageability in the cloud.”
What’s
New in SteelApp Traffic Manager 9.7
- Stand-alone Web App Firewall (WAF): Integrate SteelApp WAF as a stand-alone WAF without changing the application or upgrading existing load balancers. This enables organizations to quickly apply baseline security policies, to help support PCI or HIPAA compliance, and to protect against SQL injection, XSS, CSRF and many other external attacks.
- Now available for Microsoft Azure: Extend the reach of SteelApp Traffic Manager in the cloud with support for Microsoft Azure VHD deployments. Customers can now deploy Microsoft workloads in the optimal cloud platform for Windows workloads and any applications in Microsoft Azure.
- Progressive download: Faster web page views using a new progressive image download capability in SteelApp Web Accelerator. Image Streaming combines images into parallel data streams, which the browser downloads more efficiently than individual images.
