About WAN Performance Optimisation
WAN performance optimisation can address both bandwidth and application optimisation. In this section, learn about implementing application acceleration technologies -- such as application delivery controllers or load balancers -- and application-layer monitoring that will report problems to ensure application performance. Also find out how to make the best use of bandwidth through data and application prioritisation and traffic shaping techniques that use less capacity and prevent latency in the network.
