Thanks John

 

This customer is deploying Riverbeds as we speak.

 

No, not in the slightest - I am not trying to run a DP on the appliance -
just want to be familiar with what it can offer when it sits between the
small number of DPs that we will be hosting in Azure and the clients which
will largely be running BranchCache.

 

Were I to have a branch office scenario where I needed a DP and I couldn't
have a DP then I would aim to use a peer caching technology (which we are
doing for free) or buy one (in this case, it likely would be a different
product to Nomad) so I am planning on using simple, cheaper and well proven
technology :)

Jeeze. that post was 5 years ago! Nobody uses Riverbeds anymore. When I did
say that I liked Riverbeds it was only as a WAN accelerator not anything
more. It sounds like you are trying to run a DP on the appliance. If that's
the case I'm unfamiliar with that use case, probably because as I
said.Nobody uses riverbeds anymore. :)

 

If I had a branch office scenario where I needed a DP and I couldn't have a
DP I'd buy nomad and be done with it. That is simple, cheap and well proven
technology.

Subject: [mssms] Use of Riverbeds at remote offices

 

Hi there folks

 

I was wondering if someone would have some detail on using Riverbed
Steelheads with CM Agents please?

 

We are working on a CM design with DPs at a head office location hosting
BranchCache and clients at remote offices.  Between them we have a number of
SteelHeads and I am keen to find out more about how this scenario stands up.

 

The customer only supports Riverbedding HTTPS traffic so the assumption is
that we will be supplying the web server certs of the DPs so that they can
get at the data while in transit in order to cache it

 

As I have been BinGoogling I have found that Mr Marcum is a fan but Mr
Sandys is not

I also note that RiOS 8.5 introduced support for BranchCache in hosted mode.
Now I know that CM does not support Hosted mode, running in distributed mode
but should the customer implement this does anyone know if the Riverbeds
then publish a service connection point?

 

Best Wishes


Jason
