Riverbed SteelApp Web Accelerator
The industry’s leading virtual web content optimization solution

Overview:

What is Web Content Optimization (WCO)?

WCO dramatically accelerates web-based applications and websites by dynamically grouping activities for fewer long distance round trips. It compresses images to reduce bandwidth, increases caching for faster repeat visits and prioritizes actions to give super-fast response times for loading web pages. Resulting in improved business results for a huge range of web-based activities including Microsoft SharePoint, public websites, intranet portals and cloud applications.

What are the benefits of SteelApp Web Content Optimization Solution?

SteelApp will speed up web content served across networks regardless of access device or browser, for improved application performance and high-level service for all users. Accelerate the load times of your complex web pages by up to four times. Meanwhile, intelligent caching and dynamic compression reduces data on the wire by up to 90%.
