The SG810 Series of rack-mountable proxy appliances provides enterprises and large branch offices with the power to protect and accelerate web communications and business applications.
Located at the Internet gateway, the SG810 platform provides effective control of the enterprise's Internet traffic, including protection from spyware, malicious mobile code, inappropriate web usage, and potential legal liability - while actually improving web performance.
Located at the edge of an organization's application delivery infrastructure, the SG810 also provides controlled acceleration of business applications across the globally-distributed enterprise. Leveraging Blue Coat's MACH5 technology, the SG810 provides users at large branch offices with the same LAN-like performance and experience as those located at headquarters or the data center.
Centralized policy administration (for multi-appliance deployments) is provided by Blue Coat Director, while Blue Coat Reporter provides log aggregation from appliances for concise reports and analysis of web communications and policy enforcement.
Acceleration — MACH5Blue Coat MACH5 technology is a patent-pending combination of five separate application management and tuning technologies that provide unrivaled improvements in application performance and bandwidth utilization. Whether at the edge of your network, or right in the heart of it, MACH5 technology provides a powerful toolkit for meeting any application delivery challenge. These technologies include:
- Bandwidth Management
Assign priority and network resources based not only on port or device, but on users, applications and content to more accurately reflect your corporate policies on to the network. - Protocol Optimization
Improves the performance of protocols that are inefficient over the WAN through specific enhancements that make them more tolerant to the higher latencies typically found there. - Byte Caching
Cache repetitive traffic found in the byte stream and serve it locally to reduce the amount of traffic that actually uses the WAN at all.
- Object Caching
Store files, videos and web content locally, providing LANlike performance for WAN users, without the overhead and risk of traditional wide area file services. - Compression
Inline compression can reduce predictable patterns even on the first pass, making it an ideal complement to byte caching technology. - MACH5 Acceleration Client
SG Client software extends Mach5 acceleration capabilities to the desktop to improve the performance of applications and access to network file shares for remote users – such as mobile employees, telecommuters and small branch offices – connecting over VPNs or the WAN.
The Blue Coat SG provides a layered policy approach allowing companies to balance their communication needs with current business and Internet risks. The Blue Coat SG provides unmatched flexibility and scalability.
