Riverbed launches Riverbed-Ready Technology Alliance Program
By integrating Riverbed products with their own solutions, partners leverage Riverbed's advanced technologies and market-leading products to enhance their competitive advantage. Partners can assure customers that their Riverbed-Ready solutions are tested, verified, and supported.
The program framework enables partners to extend the Riverbed Application Performance Platform, the most complete platform for analyzing, diagnosing, and resolving application, network, and end-user performance issues anywhere in the hybrid enterprise. Together, Riverbed and its partners are providing end-to-end solutions that provide deep visibility and control to inspect, direct, and protect workloads across the hybrid enterprise. Riverbed-Ready partners will focus in areas such as security, cloud and virtualization, business applications, network performance management, application performance management, networking, and storage. Partners can leverage Riverbed open APIs and additional development tools to help with customization, integration, and automation.
"The new Riverbed-Ready program enhances our ability to offer integrated solutions that create new revenue opportunities for our Riverbed-Ready partners and deliver comprehensive tested and validated solutions to our joint customers," said Katie Colbert, vice president, global technology alliances at Riverbed.
"As a Riverbed-Ready Technology Alliance partner, we have collaborated to develop an integrated solution that provides cost-effective, application-aware network and application performance management, monitoring and visibility for the hybrid enterprise where people, apps and data are everywhere," said Ed Chapman, vice president of Business Development and Alliances at Arista, a Platinum-level Riverbed-Ready member. "With Arista and Riverbed, customers get a joint-tested solution that works as expected."
