Internet Trends 2.0 • Controlling Chaos • When there is high demand • There will be short supply • There will be a need to control that demand • More supply can never eliminate demand • Control can balance both supply and demand and increase performance
Internet Trends 2.0 • Controlling Web Page Delivery • Controlling Content • Universal Resource Locator (URL) Database • Heuristic Engine
Internet Trends 2.0 • Controlling Content • URL database is a structured collection of URLs and their corresponding categories. • URL database filtering most common method used for controlling content
Internet Trends 2.0 • Controlling Content • URL Database • Advantages • Accuracy on “constant” web sites • Fast categorization on “constant” web sites • Disadvantages • Size of database versus size of Internet • Web pages with different content • Update time for new web sites
Internet Trends 2.0 • Controlling Content • URL Database • Internet—165,719,150 web sites • 29.7 billion total web pages • 3 to 4 million new web sites each month • URL Database—35 million web sites • 21% of all web sites

Internet Trends 2.0 • Controlling Resources • Controlling Bandwidth • Application Acceleration • Bandwidth Shaping • Quality of Service
Internet Trends 2.0 • Controlling Bandwidth • Application Acceleration is usually a combination of technologies that increases traffic speed, usually through WAN connections. • Data compression • Caching • Advantage is that for supported applications, latency can be reduce and accelerated • Disadvantage is that doesn’t work well with voice traffic and not all applications can be accelerated
Internet Trends 2.0 • Controlling Bandwidth • Bandwidth Shaping, also known as bandwidth limiting or traffic shaping, is a technology that allows you to limit the amount of bandwidth consumed by a user or by an application. • Advantage is that all traffic can be controlled, either by a user level or by an application level • Disadvantage is that it does not accelerate traffic
Internet Trends 2.0 • Controlling Bandwidth • Quality of Service (QoS)—is similar to bandwidth shaping in that it can regulate network bandwidth but QoS can also reserve bandwidth to guarantee that it will be available when needed. • Advantage is that you can guarantee a threshold for a specific device or protocol • Disadvantage is reserved bandwidth cannot be used regardless of current load
Internet Trends 2.0 • Controlling Resources • Controlling Bandwidth • Which technology is right for your network? • Do you need to speed up traffic? • Do you need to slow down traffic? • Can the solution control total traffic, application traffic, and web site traffic?
