Cisco Wide Area Application Services is a powerful application acceleration and WAN optimization solution that optimizes the performance of any TCP-based application operating over a Wide Area Network (WAN) environment.
Cisco WAAS allows organizations to accomplish three primary IT objectives:
- Optimize application performance for remote users accessing centralized data center resources
- Improve agility and availability by locally hosting critical services, while provisioning them centrally
- Minimize costs through branch equipment consolidation, WAN bandwidth optimization, and simplified data protection for regulatory compliance
In comparison to other WAN optimization products, the Cisco WAAS solution offers these unique benefits:
- Lower total cost of ownership (TCO)
- Ease of operation through network transparency
- Reliable deployment with enterprise applications
- Better voice-over-IP (VoIP) quality
- Preserved security of accelerated traffic
