Accelerating WAN Application Performance To maintain an acceptable level of application performance across the WAN, IT must address the WAN attributes that slow down application performance: bandwidth limitations, latency, application contention, and transport inflexibility. This white paper discusses these factors and the benefits of a broad-based approach to WAN optimization.

The challenge in the past has been knowing where to begin with an SLM implementation. SLM tools have matured, however, to offer IT staffs the breadth and depth they need to effectively measure and analyze application and system performance. From this data, IT staffs can confidently negotiate service level agreements (SLAs) with end users. This white paper focuses on the business reasons to institute SLAs, the major tasks related to measuring mission-critical applications to obtain performance metrics, and how ProactiveNet software supports service level management tasks. It discusses: * getting started with an SLM implementation * software implementation-transaction monitoring and management * reporting and communications implementation * SLM with ProactiveNet's solution http://www.fattail.com/redir/redirect.asp?CID=86188 _______________________________________________________________ This newsletter is sponsored by Entrust Technologies Protecting Information on Mobile Devices: Mitigating Risk and Enabling Compliance through Mobile Data Security Threats to the security of data contained on mobile devices including laptops, PDAs and removable media are often underestimated. This white paper explains ways organizations can help protect against such threats and comply with regulations, without having to rely on users to change their behavior. The paper also addresses the key qualities of a mobile data security vendor and criteria that should be considered when selecting a product. http://www.fattail.com/redir/redirect.asp?CID=86039 _______________________________________________________________ Imprivata Enterprise Single Sign-On: The critical questions every company needs to ask There are a growing number of Enterprise Single Sign-On (ESSO) solutions, each with its own capabilities, associated costs, resource requirements, deployment needs, and implementation times.
