EV Group deploys data acceleration software from Silver Peak Systems to streamline global workflow processes

EV Group (EVG) of St Florian, Austria, a supplier of wafer bonding and lithography equipment, has deployed data acceleration software from Silver Peak Systems to accelerate data and applications cost-effectively between its global offices. EVG constantly sends data between its head office in Austria and remote sites in the US, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan. In addition to transferring large files and backing up data from these remote sites, the company relies on a variety of 10, 20, and 50 megabit-per-second (Mbps) WAN connections for business-critical applications that include SAP, Siebel, Web and email.

“We were constantly encountering delays with our data transfers, which interfered with our workflows,” said Alexander Olm, head of IT infrastructure for EVG. “Silver Peak was the solution-of-choice for a number of reasons. Their products provide outstanding performance, offer excellent support for linking our remote offices and data centers, and are easy to implement.”

EVG selected Silver Peak because of its software-based approach that gives the company flexibility to deploy virtual or physical WAN acceleration systems with equal performance, features and functionality. EVG currently uses a variety of Silver Peak NX physical appliances and VX virtual machines running on VMware.
