[AusNOG] Compression Appliances

[Joseph Goldman]

Thanks for the responses everyone!

  So far Riverbed seem to be the standout option. The use cases 
mentioned though fall a bit outside of what we are utilising, which will 
essentially be aggregated general internet usage, not corporate usage. 
Makes things a bit different as we can't account for specific speed up 
of O365/Sharepoint/Exchange etc, just general internet usage and start 
saving what we can. Happy to hear a difference of opinion if this 
changes peoples perception of the problem.

Will be investigating a few options that have been recommended to me so 
thanks all again, always great to get the lists opinions on such matters :)

Thanks,
Joe
