Riverbed Steelhead Mobile Client - Benefits

As you already know, more and more of the workforce is going mobile. This is only creating bigger headaches for the IT department as the end users expect the same level of application performance even when they are not at the office. Riverbed Steelhead Mobile

Luckily, there is hope. We have successfully deployed Riverbed's Steelhead mobile application acceleration client solution in many different customer network environments and it is truly changing the way business gets done.

With Steelhead Mobile businesses can give mobile workers and small branch offices LAN-like access to critical business files and applications no matter where they are. With a simple client software package installed transparently on their laptops or PCs, all of the powerful benefits of Steelhead RiOS are available to the end user.

Steelhead Mobile application acceleration works by interacting directly with a Steelhead appliance to optimize applications the same way in which Steelhead devices would work together. At least one Steelhead Mobile Controller (SMC) is required to monitor and manage Steelhead Mobile licensing.

For end users, applications and collaboration work exactly the same way, just with extremely faster performance. No changes are required to your critical applications or the normal processes that workers are used to doing all the time. IT managers and administrators do not need to make any changes to servers, routers, VPN infrastructure, or any of the other key technology in their enterprise. In fact, IT managers can control whether or not end users see anything at all, or if they want Steelhead Mobile to be completely invisible to the end users.

Application Streamlining

CIFS - Microsoft file sharing, Office applications, and numerous third-party applications benefit from Steelhead Mobile’s ability to reduce application chattiness over the WAN. Typically 65% to 98% of packet roundtrips are eliminated all together, enabling acceleration of up to 100x faster.

MAPI - Microsoft Exchange emails as well as their attachments are dramatically accelerated. Riverbed is unique in its advanced support of MAPI and MAPI 2K3, providing impressive speeds to sending even the largest email.

HTTP - Steelhead Mobile enables Web-based applications to operate more effectively from any location.

Management Streamlining

Transparent deployment - Steelhead Mobile can be deployed in a fully-transparent mode, where users have no access to the Steelhead Mobile interface. In any mode, Steelhead Mobile is transparent to network connections, servers, VPN clients, and other software packages.

Robust support - Steelhead Mobile provides a number of tools for supporting deployments, such as email alerts, SNMP triggers, diagnostic snapshots, detailed logging, and more.

Central control and monitoring - With the Steelhead Mobile Controller, IT administrators have a single resource to manage deployments, upgrades, policies, and reporting. The Steelhead- Mobile Controller also manages licensing, and is a required component of the system.

Riverbed Steelhead Mobile Client Software - Details

The Steelhead Mobile software is pushed out to the end user's machine via MSI packages. Using the Steelhead Mobile Controller (SMC), IT admins control the installation process as well as the configuration policies that determine what application optimization takes place per user or groups of users.

With Riverbed's Steelhead Mobile Application Acceleration Solution, mobile workers can be more productive than they ever imagined would be possible.

Steelhead Mobile Client

Steelhead Mobile provides simple configuration controls through the software client interface and can be managed remotely from the SMC as well.
