Infrastructure consolidation and virtualization is no longer a trend, but a business imperative for providing improved ROI, hardware utilization, and management. Companies are collapsing, leveraging virtualization, and migrating edge servers, software, and IT resources at record rates. When successful, consolidation leads to solid returns, but when challenged by wide area network constraints consolidation projects regularly fall short. No matter what approach to consolidation you choose, Expand Accelerators deliver the true experience of server and application proximity to physically distributed enterprises over the WAN.

SonicWall won SC Magazine’s Reader Trust Award for best IPSec / SSL VPN solution, beating out Astaro, Citrix, F5 and Microsoft.
“….As the global workplace becomes increasingly mobile – IDC expects 1.9 billion users on the internet and three billion users on the phone network by 2012 – organizations require secure, clientless remote access to internal network resources from any web browser. Typical users require the use of email, file servers, intranet websites, databases and desktop access to office workstations. With conventional VPN solutions, such as IPsec or PPTP, secure access to resources is often difficult or impossible to manage. Designed for remote employees and road warriors, the Barracuda SSL VPN provides comprehensive control over file systems and web-based applications requiring external access. The Barracuda SSL VPN integrates with third-party authentication mechanisms to control user access levels and provides single sign-on.
The solution is based on technology obtained through the acquisition of 3SP (based in the U.K.), the originators of the acclaimed SSL-Explorer technology. With more than 275,000 downloads of its community edition on the internet, SSL-Explorer was a highly praised and award-winning software product. After the acquisition by Barracuda Networks, this remote access technology was then integrated with Barracuda Networks’ own leading anti-virus management framework and hardware appliance technologies…”
