Certeon’s aCelera Virtual Appliance for Application Acceleration delivers acceleration as a service through software inside a virtual infrastructure—an ideal solution for enterprises looking to optimize remote access performance over the wide area network (WAN). http://www.certeon.com/news_and_events/news.asp Certeon has released its new aCelera software. The company refers to the aCelera products as 'virtual appliances.' In other words, rather than being sold in the form of appliances where the software is pre-installed on more or less proprietary hardware, aCelera products are downloadable. The 'virtual' in 'virtual appliance' is a backhanded reference to the rise of virtual servers and the flexibility virtualization gives software to share server resources or combine multiple servers for efficiency, high availability, load balancing and enhanced management. Virtualized environments support painless, nearly instantaneous software deployment. Hardware appliances, on the other hand, require shipping and physical handling that can be time-consuming and difficult to synchronize. http://www.certeon.com/news_and_events/news.asp In a small victory in the war against data center clutter, Burlington, Mass.-based Certeon Inc. is dropping its Linux-based hardware appliance. It will now accelerate WAN apps with aCelera, a virtual machine. Another plus of going all-software is price. Certeon's S-Series appliances started at $6,000, whereas an aCelera VM starts at $2,495. And the performance difference is negligible, according to Gareth Taube, vice president of marketing. http://www.certeon.com/news_and_events/news.asp aCelera Virtual Appliance software is a virtual appliance that delivers acceleration, virtualization and manageability when remotely accessing applications throughout a distributed enterprise. aCelera Virtual Appliances reduce application response time over the WAN by more than 95% without proprietary hardware appliances. aCelera is optimized for mission critical applications such as: enterprise content management, Web-based collaboration, and wide area file services. aCelera is flexible and easy to deploy delivering faster, more scalable applications, and enabling greater user productivity. http://www.certeon.com/news_and_events/news.asp The good folks from Certeon brought their new aCelera application acceleration software appliance to my attention a short while ago. After my recent conversation with Coyote Point, it’s beginning to appear that protocol and data caching and optimization tools are going to be the trend du mois. Certeon believes it can accelerate typical application environments by reducing the impact of WAN latency, pack loss, and contention by applying a great deal of intelligence to the data stream. In my experience, network I/O traffic is the first place to look when an organization is trying to deal with application performance issues. http://www.certeon.com/news_and_events/news.asp ... But hardware-based appliances are expensive, and hardware application acceleration appliance vendor Certeon recently unveiled a virtual appliance that does the job and cuts costs. http://www.certeon.com/news_and_events/news.asp The technology gene has always been part of Donato Buccella's DNA. Being involved in technology companies is something he has seen himself doing for as long as he can remember, he says. The industry veteran has a long track record of such involvement and continues to immerse himself in new technology, this time with a new position as chief technology officer of Certeon Inc. http://www.certeon.com/news_and_events/news.asp Server virtualization technology is changing the way enterprises deploy applications - and it's changing the way they view single-function hardware appliances. For companies looking to cut back on branch-office (and data center) hardware, Certeon this week announced a new application acceleration product that's all software and is designed to be deployed in a virtual server infrastructure. http://www.certeon.com/news_and_events/news.asp Virtualization has moved beyond applications themselves to software that makes those applications run faster over a network.

To help IT managers augment their systems in both regards, vendors have been developing tweaking strategies to boost application speed beyond design limits. This process is called "application acceleration." However, this race has changed quite a bit over the past few months. Some vendors jumped ship while others changed strategy entirely. By and large, customers are screaming for more simplicity across the board when it comes to application acceleration.
