Riverbed customer, Dudek, avoids unnecessary server deployment

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

I spoke with Abe Esguerra, Director, Information Technology for Dudek, a civil engineering firm. Dudek designs and manages water and waste water facilities. After he gave a presentation at the Riverbed booth, I asked Esguerra how Dudek, an early Riverbed customer, is continuing to benefit from Riverbed technology.

Esguerra admitted that his company's biggest problem was file transfer. They have volumes of environmental documentation. Transferring data alone was spilling past regular business hours. Solving that simple problem, trickled down to solve other problems, like not having to deploy Microsoft servers to deploy services that were inherent in the Riverbed devices.
