SteelConnect
Rethink Networking
Introducing Riverbed SteelConnect, an SD-WAN networking solution that offers a radically new approach to networking in a cloud-centric world.
SteelConnect is uniquely designed to enable business-intent policies for applications to provide the performance and agility enterprises need today.
How does Riverbed SteelConnect works
The solution consists of appliances and a centralized management console that the administrator uses to view network health, deploy appliances and make changes to policy. Secure connectivity is automatically established with appliances, policy is updated, and, based on real-time network health, business-critical applications always receive right-of-way.
