Enterprises have long been battling the inherent performance limitations of Wide Area Networks (WANs) when delivering applications to remote offices. Caching emerged in the 1990's as a potential way of addressing this problem, accelerating the performance of specific applications, such as web services, while reducing overall WAN traffic.
While caching achieved reasonable success for a few short years, the market for these point products ultimately subsided as a result of several operational and functional limitations. This white paper looks at alternatives, exploring the fundamental differences between network memory and application caching.
