Original Press Release:



Ipanema Introduces Intelligent Acceleration to Accelerate and Guarantee the Performance of Business Applications Over the WAN



Achieve Best Possible Quality of Experience for all WAN Business Applications Anytime, Anywhere, Anyway

NEW YORK-Interop- Sept.15, 2008 - Ipanema Technologies, a leader in application traffic management systems for wide area networks, today announced a major update to its solution, Intelligent Acceleration, which helps enterprises achieve the best possible Quality of Experience (QoE) for their WAN business applications.

Intelligent Acceleration leverages Ipanema's Autonomic Networking System, which provides the most complete traffic management feature set on the market. It starts with layer 7 classification of data flows, intelligently inspecting traffic to strictly differentiate between business critical and non-critical and recreational applications. A combination of redundancy elimination, TCP acceleration and application acceleration mechanisms are dynamically applied under the control of sophisticated global, dynamic optimization features.

Following the principles of autonomic networking systems, the mechanisms are triggered dynamically depending on the nature of the applications. The system automatically adapts these parameters in real-time based on a dynamic, global analysis of the traffic mix, user behavior and continuous tracking of WAN resource availability.

Ipanema's Autonomic Networking System performs the complete range of application traffic management functions, including Visibility, Optimization and Acceleration. This solution is used by large enterprises globally to turn their WANs into intelligent networks delivering excellent user QoE anytime, anywhere, anyway.

Intelligent Acceleration includes a new generation of algorithms that offer breakthrough response time improvements for business applications including SAP, Oracle, mail, file transfers, CIFS, Web, etc. In addition to large pattern caching and other protocol acceleration techniques, a dedicated zero delay processing path enables quality of experience improvements for interactive applications, including terminals (telnet, SSH, etc.) and virtualized desktops (Citrix, VMware, etc.). Real-time applications (video streaming, VoIP, etc.) may also be both compressed and protected against jitter, delay and loss. The combination of all these technologies delivers guaranteed Mean Opinion Score (MOS) and Application Quality ScoreTM (AQS) values and provides excellent WAN capacity improvements.

The solution is driven by a set of Application Performance Objectives that define user QoE requirements for each application - a concept at the heart of application SLA services of leading telcos worldwide.

"Intelligent Acceleration is the only solution achieving breakthrough response time improvements while delivering guarantees in terms of QoE for all business applications," said Frank Lyonnet, VP of Product Marketing at Ipanema Technologies. "Unlike point product offerings, Intelligent Acceleration was designed from scratch to apply on rich traffic mixes and large meshed networks. It's not limited to file transfer applications between a small number of sites."

Intelligent Acceleration is transparent to IT and does not require any modification of server or desktop environments. It is compatible with security devices, Class of Service, and it supports asymmetric routes and redundant network architectures.

Intelligent Acceleration leverages Ipanema's global application flow usage and quality monitoring and reporting. It includes dedicated metrics, such as the Accelerometer, a live acceleration indicator that calculates response time improvements for each application and site in real-time.

Intelligent Acceleration is compatible with all of Ipanema's WAN Optimization devices (ip|engines) and is available immediately.
