An ever-expanding list of government and accounting regulations makes compliance more complex than ever before.

Financial and administrative organisations are under increasing pressure to archive and back up mission-critical data from branch offices and data centres to remote disaster recovery sites. With a growing volume of data combined with the current infrastructure, the challenge is to speed up transfers.

Your WAN, however, may be holding you back. Backup and applications perform slow and inconsistent. Data transfers take far too long. That means longer backup and upload times and the potential for financial loss.

MRA Group offers a smart, simple approach to optimizing your WAN. You'll see enormous improvements as enterprise-wide data protection and recovery applications, as well as business critical applications all perform faster than ever.

By dynamically applying just the right mix of acceleration techniques at all times, MRA group speeds up data transfer to ensure all data is archived within a short backup window. Business cases prove that we have improved back up windows over ten times.

Increasing Application Performance
Today's customers demand more service than ever from their financial institutions. Facilitators are under ever greater pressure to focus less on transactions and more on becoming a key delivery point for value-added services such as account management, investments, loans and being first point of contact to end users.

The current solution for organisations is to bring in a team of consultants to develop these online services. Traditionally the solution focuses on delivering services to the customer. Global reach, performance and the amount of bandwidth needed are merely an afterthought. A problem to be solved after your service is online.

In fact, you may be investing in a Web-based ERP application to link branch offices to your corporate data centre. But if the WAN link is a bottleneck, remote applications slow down to the speed of slowest link. The wait for information becomes too long to efficiently process a transaction or sale. Users become frustrated. Customers get impatient and will go to the competition.

Adding bandwidth is an expensive fix that will offer little and certainly no long-term improvement. You have to be smart and simple in optimising your WAN.

MRA Group constantly and automatically addresses problems such as packet loss, latency, and changing network conditions. You'll see a faster and more reliable application performance and improved productivity with no added bandwidth required.

What's more it adds on to your network or infrastructure, so the investments already made in the past will still prove their worth.
