\"Gateway\"<\/a>Orange Business Services has integrated its Enterprise Application Management (EAM) Riverbed offering into its Business VPN Galerie portfolio, reports Telecoms.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The EAM offering is a fully-managed service from Orange Business Services targeted on delivering application acceleration and WAN optimization to boost user experience. The product aims to tackle a number of different challenges for customers including insufficient WAN bandwidth, as well as insufficient transport and application protocols in high-latency environments.<\/p>\n

The offering uses Riverbed\u2019s Steelhead appliances to deliver application acceleration and WAN optimization, which uses various optimization techniques including data, transport, application and management streamlining. The data streamlining techniques are claimed to reduce WAN bandwidth utilization by 65% to 98% for TCP-based applications.<\/p>\n

\u201cCustomers need to boost end-user application experience with faster response times to increase productivity at a global scale, enable business-critical migration projects and improve the corporate image,\u201d said Pierre-Louis Biaggi, VP of the connectivity business at Orange Business Services. \u201cBy integrating Riverbed\u2019s best-of-breed technology in our secure and fully-managed solution we can deliver this promise.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Business VPN Galerie, which Orange claims was the world’s first cloud-ready network, offers customers a range of cloud-based applications and services from their own private network provided by Orange Business Services or its partners. The portfolio currently has 1,600 customers, as well as more than 20 cloud partners including Orange Cloud for Business, Google Cloud Platform, Microsoft Express Route, Salesforce and AWS.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere in the Orange business, the team have opened a new Eco campus based in Chatillon on the outskirts of Paris, which will be devoted completely to research and innovation.<\/p>\n

\u201cInnovation, has always been one of the Group\u2019s fundamentals, and must be the expression of Orange\u2019s mission: transforming technology into progress each day and serving people through innovation,\u201d said St\u00e9phane Richard, CEO of Orange. \u201cTo put the human context in the centre of our thinking, it is a choice we accept and that characterises us, this is a philosophy that now has a name: \u2018Human Inside\u2019. \u2018Human Inside\u2019 is both a slogan and a catchword, that gives meaning and which highlights all our action.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
