Branch Office Solutions

Though application delivery can be managed efficiently from data centers, deploying StreamGroomers in branch offices adds more intelligence and control.

Streamcore Branch Office solutions are especially well suited for VoIP / Unified Communications initiatives:

• Manage any-to-any traffic (network traffic exchanged between branch offices and not with data centers).
• Guarantee performance for VoIP and video, real-time applications that are very sensitive to any performance degradation over the WAN.
• Measure user experience with dedicated indicators such as MOS (Mean Opinion Score) per site or even per communication.

Moreover, with StreamGroomer at the branch office, advanced end-to-end control features can be provided by cooperating with Data Center StreamGroomers. These features can be applied to Backup link optimization initiatives:

• Use WAN load balancing to distribute traffic between the main link and the backup link
• Apply automatically a backup QoS policy in case the main access link fails
• Enable encryption in order to use the Internet as a backup link to the data center
• Boost WAN capacity with compression
