Riverbed continues building on its success in the [ WAN optimization ] and [ network application performance visibility ] markets with new and innovative solutions for accelerating [ cloud storage ] and access to applications and data deployed in the [ public cloud ].

NetAdmin World Magazine presented Riverbed with the "2010 Best Product for Network Application Acceleration" award at the annual 2010 China Network Management Technology Conference after an extensive 3-month survey. The results, polled from network administrators from the China Computer Users Association, information centers of various ministries and local government departments, businesses, and university network centers, identified Riverbed Steelhead appliances as the leading innovative solutions for network application acceleration.
Most Innovative Solution for Network Optimization in 2010
China Network World's awards are designed to showcase the major enterprise-class IT products and solutions of the year that have made significant, innovative technological changes or performance improvements.
