By: Colin Saldanha Dubai Investments is the largest investment company publicly traded on the Dubai stock market. With a paid up capital of AED 3.2 billion and investments worldwide, this distributed organization must constantly communicate with all of its client organizations to access enterprise applications, such as a centralized Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, email, centrally stored files and Internet content and applications. “Our business demanded a solution that would optimize and secure the flow of information across any of our distributed locations and for any remote user,” said Mr. Manohar K, IT Advisor of Dubai Investments. “The Blue Coat installation has considerably reduced our bandwidth consumption over the WAN and across our Internet connections enabling us to contain network costs while boosting employee productivity and expediting business processes.” Before its deployment of Blue Coat ProxySG appliances, Dubai Investments had considered increasing the MPLS bandwidth for its WAN, but found that WAN optimization offered a more cost-effective solution by addressing underlying performance issues rather than providing a temporary solution. Now with “direct to the ‘net” Internet access, Dubai Investments’ “Blue Coat ProxySG appliances provide a decisive advantage to distributed enterprises and organizations by accelerating applications and the business processes that they enable, while also providing security,” said Nidal Taha, Regional Director for ME and Turkey, Blue Coat Systems. “We are proud to supply Dubai Investments with solutions that make available WAN optimization and Web security to all users in its organisation and to client companies, while reducing overall operational costs.” -Ends- About Blue Coat Systems Blue Coat Systems is the technology leader in Application Delivery Networking.
