Riverbed to Showcase IT Performance Solutions at Defense Intelligence Information Enterprise ConferenceSAN FRANCISCO, CA, Jun 06, 2011 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- Riverbed Technology (NASDAQ: RVBD), the IT performance company, today announced its participation at the 2011 Defense Intelligence Information Enterprise (DI2E) Conference, taking place June 7-9, at the Hyatt Regency in Dallas, Texas. The DI2E Conference brings together developers, program officers and users for demonstrations and discussions on how to best deliver a professional, fully-integrated and seamless IT solution to provide the best intelligence, counterintelligence and security information in support of the warfighter, coalition and national intelligence requirements. At the conference, Riverbed(R) (booth #424) will showcase wide area network (WAN) optimization, network performance management (NPM) and satellite communications solutions for defense and intelligence agencies. More than 13,000 organizations worldwide, across a wide range of markets, depend on Riverbed to understand, optimize and consolidate their IT infrastructure. Riverbed delivers hardware and virtualized solutions that overcome performance issues caused by distance, distributed computing, and ever increasing amounts of data. Virtualization, consolidation and cloud computing promise huge cost savings and improved efficiencies, but as users move farther from their data, slow applications and file transfers can stall these strategic initiatives. Riverbed delivers to the remote office and mobile workers the same "local area network (LAN)-like" performance, no matter where the private data center or public cloud may be. Riverbed continues building on its success in the WAN optimization and NPM markets with new and innovative solutions for accelerating cloud storage and access to applications and data deployed in public, private and hybrid clouds. Visitors to the Riverbed booth can learn how the company's WAN optimization and NPM solutions can help accelerate the transmission of mission-critical data over satellite-based WANs to help the defense intelligence community better meet its operational objectives. In November 2010, Riverbed acquired Global Protocols LLC to expand on an existing partnership and enable customers to derive even greater value out of the combined solution for satellite networks. Currently, customers are able to achieve high-performance, secure access to mission-critical information by combining the market-leading WAN optimization capabilities of Riverbed Steelhead(R) appliances with SkipWare functionality within the Riverbed Services Platform (RSP). The theme of this year's DI2E conference is "Converging the Enterprise." The DI2E is the logical integration of the successes of the Distributed Common Ground/Surface System (DCGS) and Joint Intelligence Operations Center (JIOC) Enterprises to support our defense, national, and international partners with all-source intelligence and counterintelligence.
