The data center ecosystem is quickly evolving as customers consolidate data centers and look towards an ever increasing amount of applications driving data to end user devices. WAN Optimization products continue to evolve around the intelligent branch as well as increased data traffic between data centers. Application Delivery Controllers expand their role under increasing workloads in the data center and the expansion of Cloud.
