Leading UK Law Firm Accelerates Citrix, Data Replication Traffic with Exinda Appliance
Wednesday, 19 October 2011 - BOSTON, MA - Exinda, a global provider of WAN optimisation solutions incorporating Unified Performance Management, today announced that HempsonsSolicitors, the largest specialist Health and Social Care legal practice in the UK, has deployed Exinda Unified Performance Management WAN optimisation appliances to streamline Citrix application traffic flows and handle site-to-site data replication. The solution has enabled Hempsons Solicitors to maintain high Citrix performance for its 270 employees whilst reducing datareplication traffic by 70 percent among its offices in London, Manchester, Harrogate and Newcastle.
“We were replacing an outmoded packet shaping appliance and we wanted the flexibility to do WAN optimization while achieving greater visibility and control over ourtraffic,” said Brett Raymond, Head of IT at Hempsons Solicitors. “The Exinda appliances give us much more granular visibility, control, and reporting ofapplications and users on our WAN while optimizing site-to-site data replication traffic.”
Exinda partner NETprotocol deployed the Exinda 4060 series appliances for Hempsonssolicitors and provides on-going management of the solution. The Exinda appliances made it possible to perform office-to-office data replication by significantly reducing WAN traffic during data replication operations. In fact, the bandwidth savings have been great enough that Hempsons Solicitors is considering adding more applications to its network.
“We have achieved over 200 percent performance increase in our data replication at peak throughput, with an average increase of approximately 70 percent. Our Citrix users continue to enjoy excellent application delivery performance, even with the additional high volume of data replication that was recently added to the WAN. We have achieved this without having to spend on additional bandwidth,” continued Raymond.
