Wan optimization really took off around 2005
since the technology had inherent constraints
that researchers addressed and sorted out. At the
forefront of these technologies is Riverbed
Technology, a US based company. Its Wan

Cisco, Citrix and other companies in this

wan optimization lab on Vmware ESXi.
