  3. Company History Focused on Web Acceleration Expanded in Control & Security Added QOS & Application Visibility Founded in 1996 as CacheFlow In 2002, Changed Name to Blue Coat In 2008, Acquired Packeteer 1996 1998 2000 2002 2004 2006 2008 In 1999, CacheFlow had 3rd most successful IPO in Silicon Valley history Expanded in 2006 with MACH5 Technology Added WAN Optimization & Acceleration 3

  4. Blue Coat to Acquire Packeteer Blue Coat acquired Packeteer to Offer Complete Solution for WAN Optimization • Incorporate key Packeteer® technologies into the Blue Coat® ProxySG® family of appliances to provide increased application understanding and traffic prioritization capabilities • Provide additional functionality with the PacketShaper product • Extended leadership for Blue Coat in the WAN optimization market

  5. Leader Position in Two Gartner Magic Quadrants Secure Web Gateway, 2008 WAN Optimization Controller, 2007 “Blue Coat is the most mature vendor in this market… well-tested for scalability and performance … “Blue Coat has strong market understanding, demonstrated through its broad WOC range and feature set. This includes HTTPS acceleration, ECDN, a software client ("SoftWOC") and support for streaming media.” Source: Gartner Magic Quadrant for WAN Optimization Controllers, 2007

  6. The Connectivity Layer is Poor at Delivering Applications SaaS Enterprise Datacenter Consolidation Remote Offices Unified Communications WAN and Internet Video IP Telephony Messaging Mobile Users Web 2.0 & Mash-Ups • The connection network: • Doesn’t know what applications are running across it • Has limited knowledge of users and content • Can’t tell what is malicious and what isn’t • Can’t control mission critical applications A New Kind of Layer is Required…

  7. Application Delivery Network End Users Sees information Application Servers Sees Users, And information Application Delivery Network Sees & Controls EVERYTHING Application PerformanceMonitoring WAN Optimization Secure Web Gateway Connectivity Sees connections and packets

  9. Visibility: How Blue Coat Helps SAP Response Times Spiking Cause: Spike in connection hitting server. Most connections ignored Total Delay SAP Order Entry: 1220 ms Network Delay: 340 ms Server Delay: 880 ms • Classify – See what is on network • Utilization by application • Measure – End User Delay • Network-Server-Total • Troubleshoot – who, what, when • 120+ stats per class • Fix • QOS, Compression, Acceleration, Security

  10. What is Application Visibility? Identifies Applications for What They Really Are Recreational Streaming8% E-mail20% P2P12% InternetGaming5% FileTransfers9% Oracle7% Citrix5% Web Browsing28% 53% of bandwidth being used by recreational applications 14% of bandwidth is “business critical” TN32702% Other4%

  11. Classification • Maps traffic to its classification library • Automatically builds a list of the applications running on your network • 600+ Application classes • Sub-classify within complex apps / HTTP • Good, bad and malicious traffic • Current and next generation applications • Plug-In Architecture • Enables new application definitions without firmware upgrade

  12. Monitoring: Network Utilization • Average and peak • Network efficiency • Top Talkers/Listeners • Packets and packet sizes See up-to-the minute network utilization Understand cause and effect

  13. Application Response Times • How do specific applications perform? Start solving performance issues before users report them as problems See how applications actually perform

  14. Voice and Video Quality Metrics • Quality metrics for converged networks • Measure jitter, loss and delay for RTP traffic – voice and video • Track SLAs for Voice, Video and MPLS Services • Extends Application SLAs to voice traffic (Real Time Protocol) • Monitor call quality for IP Telephony and Video conferencing • Monitor performance of real time classes for MPLS WAN Service Rich performance, call data and quality ensures your network or your service provider meet or exceed service level objectives

  15. Monitoring: SLAs and Quality Metrics • Establish service level reporting to: • Set thresholds • Measure compliance • Proactively send alerts Graph % of transactions that meet service level objectives
