Steelhead Primary Use Case
Our major use case involves optimizing data replication between the primary and backup data centers in a banking system. Typically, banks have multiple data centers, and they replicate data for backup and disaster recovery. Using Steelhead devices between these centers helps in optimizing bandwidth, which is crucial as dedicated fiber and bandwidth can be expensive.

You should buy SteelHead for WAN optimization because it delivers more.

If you face a latency issue or slow application performance, go for this solution.
