Two year old Wan Optlmization startup Peribit Networks this Fall will turn its attention to application response time and larger networks, with new software and hardware for each. The Santa Clara, California, company next month will add new PFA (Packet Flow Acceleration) technology to its Sequence Reducer hardware, which employs proprietary Molecular Sequence Reduction technology to compress redundant data flows crossing expensive WAN links. With wait times fairly lengthy over long distances, the PFA technology promises to bring LAN-like performance to users accessing remote ERP (enterprise resource planning) applications from one continent to the next, according to Peribit user Chip Greel, architect at Finisar Corp., in Sunnyvale, California.
