Accelerate consolidation of virtual machines with Riverbed

David Spark reporting for Riverbed at Interop '09, Las Vegas, NV.

I hadn't spent too much time talking about cloud computing and virtualization, which is a hot topic at Interop, so I stopped Milin Desai, product manager at Riverbed to explain Riverbed's foothold in the spectrum of virtualization.

Desai talked about the ease of moving virtual machines through your WAN rather than moving physical boxes. Plus, we discussed the Riverbed Services Platform or RSP which allows you to bring virtual services onto the Steelhead appliance allowing them to run alongside WAN acceleration.
