WAN Acceleration
WAN acceleration improves network application performance by speeding access to resources such as e-mail, CRM databases, and Web servers. It overcomes network latency, protocol chattiness, and other issues that arise when using WAN links (such as the Internet) to access applications possibly written for a LAN environment.
The F5 WANJet® appliance increases performance for WAN data transfers, applications and portals, CRM, and collaboration environments, creating a LAN-like experience over a WAN.
