  1. CloudBridge for NetApp Storage Replication Acceleration Gopinath Durairaj / Karl Brown Citrix Cloud Networking Group Cedric Courteix Technical Alliance Manager, NetAppGlobal Alliances

  2. Storage Replication Data Center • Synchronous Replication  limited by latency • Asynchronous Replication  Periodic updates • Typical Replication Options • Nightly – finish within the assigned window • Continuous – co-exist with critical flows Storage Data Center (Backup)

  3. CloudBridge Optimization Technologies WAN Optimization Engine Network Congestion, Latency and Packet Loss Compression Protocol Accelerators QoS TCP Flow Control Improve inefficient protocols Prioritize critical traffic Data compression / De-duplication Overcome loss/latency penalties

  4. CloudBridge Flow Control Without CloudBridge With CloudBridge Throughput Throughput Link Speed AverageUtilization AverageUtilization Time Time Slow Start Slow Ramp Adjusts for both latency and packet loss

  6. With Cloudbridge NetAppSnapMirror 20% Application Traffic 20% Bulk Transfers 60% CloudBridge QoS Without CloudBridge Bulk Transfers Application Traffic WAN NetAppSnapMirror Application level granularity Deep classification, prioritization and shaping for all network traffic

  7. CloudBridge Accelerates SnapMirror by 7-10x 50ms WAN with 0.01% loss 10x 7.3x Greater benefits under high latency or lossy WAN conditions

  8. CloudBridgeoptimizes NetApp Replication and XenApp/XenDesktop/ShareFile Leverage same CloudBridge appliance to: • Improve user experience for ShareFile • Accelerate replication on NetAppto meet disaster recovery objectives • Optimize XenApp/XenDesktop and other branch applications 7-10x faster storage replication NAS NAS NAS NAS Branch 2-5x faster file downloads Datacenter 1 Datacenter 2

  9. Key Takeaways • Storage replication can be challenging with WAN latency, congestion and loss • CloudBridge helps dramatically speed up the replication using flow control, data compression/de-duplication • Citrix and NetApp are working together providing complete customer solutions • Significant opportunity to upsell new solutions and to target install base
