EXPAND NETWORKS NAMED BEST OF INTEROP LAS VEGAS

Interop, Las Vegas, May 20th 2009

Expand Networks | Virtual Accelerator Wins Interop Las Vegas - (Category: Performance Optimization)

"The judges selected the products they believe will have the greatest potential impact and advance business technology efficiencies.

As a truly virtualized offering, the Virtual Accelerator is able to utilize the existing hardware, shared storage, management, back up policies and configuration tools, as well as ensuring existing Service Level Agreements and support services are maintained, thus simplifying datacenter management and reducing TCO."

What the judges say:

"It costs per remote office rise linearly as more offices are added. One way organizations are reducing costs is through consolidating applications back to a data center and reducing computers in the office. Using virtualization to consolidate critical resources onto a single platform makes sense and fitting in Expands Virtual Accelerator as one more service reduces another remote system. Expands Virtual Accelerator solves practical IT issues and leverages the flexibility and versatility of virtualization and that is why it won Best of Interop’s Performance Optimization category. "
