Abstract: Silver Peak is doing exciting things in WAN optimisation,
	data centre consolidation, and offsite data transfer.  This
	session will include a short presentation and discussion on
	the issues and possible solutions, and a nice demo of how
	it's possible to negate jitter and packet loss in streaming
	multimedia.  It's not going to be a product pitch, but you'll
	see why Google, eBay, Facebook, Apple, and EMC all use and
	recommend Silver Peak.

	systems.  He's the Regional Director Oceania for Silver
	Peak and has extensive experience in large and small
	networks, data centres, and internet technologies.  He's
	previously held consultant and sales roles with Datacraft,

	sponsoring food and drinks for this meeting.
