Cisco is refreshing its Wide Area Application Services (WAAS) appliances for Wide Area Network (WAN) applications. The company says the number of Internet-based applications is expected to reach 1 million this decade and it wants to help customers scale the delivery of rising volumes of applications and video traffic across networks to any user and device. The new solutions will ‘substantially’ improve application performance and user experience by providing up to five times the bandwidth and supporting up to three times the users compared to the previous generation, as well as reduce the hardware required by 66 percent.
