APCON announced that its IntellaStore II has completed Riverbed-Ready certification through the Riverbed-Ready Technology Alliance program.
When installed with Riverbed SteelCentral virtual network performance management (NPM) solutions – including SteelCentral NetProfiler, SteelCentral NetShark, and SteelCentral NetExpress – IntellaStore II enables customers to identify and resolve complex network issues quickly.
APCON’s IntellaStore II is an all-in-one network visibility solution for midsize data centers and remote locations, and combines an advanced network monitoring switch with a dedicated application processor that is Riverbed-Ready, compatible with VMware ESXi. The product will be released for general availability in May 2015, with Riverbed offering IntellaStore II customers a 90-day full license of Riverbed SteelCentral virtual NPM solutions.
“Network speed and reliability is critical for businesses, but is a constant challenge for IT operations in midsize organizations,” said Richard Rauch, President and CEO of APCON. “The APCON Riverbed-Ready certified solution offers midsize businesses the ability to monitor any point on their network, spot and prevent slowdowns and outages, and resolve problems quickly.”
“Through the Riverbed-Ready program, Riverbed and APCON will provide customers an integrated solution that helps solve their network monitoring issues,” said Katie Colbert, VP, Global Technology Alliances at Riverbed. “This end-to-end solution provides deep visibility to inspect, direct, and protect workloads across the hybrid enterprise.”
“Two key areas where mid-tier organizations can stretch their investments further are the consolidation of forensic packet storage and the reduction of dedicated hardware for packet monitoring tools,” stated Shamus McGillicuddy, Senior Analyst at Enterprise Management Associates. “APCON’s IntellaStore II can host multiple monitoring tools, eliminating the need to maintain separate dedicated appliances.”
