limitations to optimize application
delivery to users across the
distributed organization.
Users and their data continue to move farther apart.
Sometimes the driver is server consolidation, leaving
branch and remote offices with poor performance. Other
times, the driver is the growth of data itself, data that
must be backed-up, served out and distributed. For all
these reasons and more, WAN performance has become a
critical choke point in successfully delivering applications
to the users that need them.
Each organization’s challenge is different, however.
Poor file service performance, excessive Internet
backhaul, slow SSL encrypted software-as-service
applications, growing video use and an inability to use
thick-client applications over a WAN are but some of the
most common problems. Unfortunately, the traditional
approach to solving all of them – more bandwidth – is
ineffective, because most networks are now bound by a
more fundamental limitation: latency.
In response, many IT organizations have begun to evaluate
specialized solutions that can accelerate application
delivery by overcoming latency and expanding throughput.
However, many of these solutions address only part of
the overall mix of challenges. A comprehensive solution
should support all key enterprise business applications

Solution with MACH5 Technology
Enables Organizations to:
Accelerate Business Applications
-> With MACH5, enterprises can accelerate all key business
applications – file, e-mail, web, video, secure web
(HTTPS), while maintaining complete control over
non-business applications (e.g., P2P, IM, Skype) and
unwanted network traffic (Spyware, inappropriate Web
content, malicious traffic).

non-business applications (e.g., P2P, IM, Skype) and

content, malicious traffic).
Enable Server Consolidation
-> MACH5 acceleration technology helps centralized
applications work, allowing organizations to consolidate
applications to meet cost and compliance requirements,
and still maintain application performance.
applications to meet cost and compliance requirements,
and still maintain application performance.
Accelerate Encrypted Applications
-> More and more applications are being “webified,” and
many of those are hosted (or partially hosted) outside the
enterprise. This often means that HTTPS/SSL is a greater
portion of overall traffic. Blue Coat’s MACH5 technology
can accelerate this encrypted traffic – even when the
application is hosted/owned by a third party.

application is hosted/owned by a third party.
Accelerate Backup and Business Continuity
-> Data at rest has been growing faster than network
throughput, making it hard to complete backups and meet
continuity and recovery objectives. MACH5 overcomes
the effects of latency, expands throughput and assigns
resources to ensure backups get done on time – or that
applications are usable in the event of an emergency.

The Blue Coat Solution
Blue Coat’s acceleration solution, featuring MACH5
(Multiprotocol Accelerated Caching Hierarchy) technology,
enables organizations to accelerate delivery of all
key productivity applications – including file services,
email/Exchange, Web applications, video, and SSL
encrypted web applications. MACH5 encompasses five
acceleration techniques that work in concert – Bandwidth
Management, Protocol Optimization, Object Caching, Byte
Caching, and Compression. Combined, these technologies
enable more solutions to common networking challenges
than competing approaches and return control of the
WAN back to the business.
