“We end up with a 2-meg file being replicated over our entire WAN, then of course everyone has to save it, so where does it go? Home directory, of course, ... Say 100 people save it on each of our nine servers. Multiply that by four or five of these during the holidays and four or five more throughout the year, and we're talking enough space to drive my Olds through.”

“Web applications are particularly susceptible to high-latency WAN links, which can translate into dismal user performance. Although the flexibility and innovation Web services promise are attractive, the implementation costs and poor user performance can make realization of these promises difficult. With the Expand Compass Platform, our customers such as Continental Airlines can accelerate the performance of their Web-based applications to encourage user adoption and satisfaction, while simultaneously removing the cost of upgrading WAN links.”
