Brandix Lanka selects Riverbed SteelHead to overcome poor connectivity and accelerate cloud-first strategy
View(s):Riverbed Technology, the application performance company, announced this week that Sri Lankan apparel exporter Brandix Lanka Ltd has selected Riverbed SteelHead to address pervasive connectivity, low-bandwidth and latency issues, and accelerate its cloud-first strategy.
This is an initiative aimed at speeding time to market, lowering OPEX and improving end-user experience through faster delivery of business-critical applications, including Microsoft Office 365, over wide area networks (WANs), the Riverbed said in a media release. As a result, Brandix Lanka has reduced its network bandwidth use by as much as 95 per cent reducing the amount of data going over the network by an average of 50 per cent, and cut the average time it takes for end-users to send and receive data by half.
Brandix Lanka is Sri Lanka’s single largest apparel exporter, employing over 48,000 associates and supported by 40+ manufacturing facilities located throughout Sri Lanka, India and Bangladesh. The pioneer of the concept of ‘total solutions’ in the country’s apparel sector, and a preferred supplier to some of the top retail brands in the US and Europe, Brandix Lanka is also a benchmark and international award winner for eco-friendly manufacture and commitment to environmental best practices.
