VistaOne Webinar Series: Your Network Through The Eyes of Your Shaper
In case you missed our webinar last month--here's all the info and where to view the archived version.
What kind of view do different traffic shaping products - Blue Coat PacketShaper, Exinda Networks UPM and Procera Networks PacketLogic - provide into your network? How do those views compare? Considering upgrading a current shaper or the purchase of a new product? How do the different traffic shaping appliances classify applications and protocols? How do they identify uses and hosts? How do they track traffic patterns over time? And what do they have to show about the health of my network? Explore these features in this VistaOne Web tutorial led by our Senior Systems Engineer, Jim Dixon. Following this brief technical exploration, you will: - Understand how each of these devices classifies application traffic and how each provides tools for creating your own custom traffic classifications. - Learn about the options available for directory integration and host identification and how they impact shaping policy. - Distinguish the views each device affords of historical data and how each different device allows for the retrieval of specific data. - Recognize what metrics (RTT, packet loss, etc) each device uses to measure network health and what features each provides to track network and/or application health. This session presents technical information as a service to current VistaOne customers and those considering the purchase of a traffic shaping appliance. Find out which network visibility features are most important to you and and which would have the greatest impact in your network environment How important is visibility in your network?

Support a Worthy Cause and Enjoy a Pro Soccer Match in the Bargain
By Mike Callahan
I am a professional soccer player with the Richmond Kickers as well as the Community Relations Coordinator for VistaOne. While our main focus at VistaOne is improving network performance, we place a great deal of importance on giving back to the Richmond Community. I wanted to share with you some of the work we have been doing as well as respectfully ask for your support.
The first focus of our program is on the underserved youth in Richmond who often miss out on fun and unique opportunities. VistaOne and the Kickers have teamed up to address this problem and provide the hopefully sustainable experiences that these children deserve. To get a better idea for what our program is all about, please check out this link to the Richmond Kickers website.
Our second focus is on Special Olympians, which is where we would love to get your and your associates’ help. VistaOne is sponsoring a “Special Olympics Night” at the Kickers home game on July 22nd against the LA Blues. While we expect the pro game to generate its normal enthusiasm, it’s the Special Halftime contest where we need the heartiest fan support!
We’ll have a pre-game party for everyone and your kids are welcome to take the field before and after the game with ALL the athletes, Kickers and Olympians! Simply put, we want to put as many people in the stands as possible to give these athletes the support and recognition that they deserve. Get more information and reserve your tickets to this great event.
Please feel free to email or call me (804-479-7702) if you have any ideas for projects we could work on together or if you simply want to bring some employees out to any game! Thank you for taking the time to read this and for making the Richmond community a better place!
Microsoft OneNote on the Apple iPhone?
By Steve Evans
Who would have thought the day would come that you would see a Microsoft OneNote icon on an Apple iPhone screen? Microsoft has been dreadfully silent for the many years the iPhone has been dominating the Smart Phone market. I did not expect they would enter it at this late date. Being this late to the Party has allowed other solutions to fill this niche such as Drop Box,EverNote, and others. Â
But then again why would Microsoft not want its applications on the tremendously successful iPhone OS? It just sounds like good business to me. But since when does that matter for big companies like Microsoft or Apple? After all, wouldn’t the iPad be even more successful if they had just included Flash. But no, that would make too much sense to give the users what they are pleading for. What’s wrong with these companies?
In essence, they’ve lost sight of those whom they serve; you and me. All a company has to do to be tremendously successful is provide what their customers want in a cost competitive way. VistaOne has carefully chosen the companies we work with in the WAN optimization and application performance management space to fit that very bill. I would think that everyone would do this. The sad thing is that customers are begging companies to take their money if they would just provide the services they need.  How many would pay for Microsoft Word on the iPad?  Perhaps Microsoft is getting a clue. I guess we’ll have to stay tuned.

Social Media: Toddler on the Loose
By Dave Inman
The ability to write on a blog, like I am doing right now, is like yelling into the Grand Canyon. Your voice is going to travel, and reverberate, but you never know who, if anyone, is listening.
There is inherent danger in this and also possibility. But as Jorn Lyseggen the Chief Executive of Meltwater Group said in a recent BBC News article, "Social media is a toddler, but nobody yet knows what promise that toddler holds."
The growth of the computer is a part of my life, and roughly follows my growth into adulthood. I was not born into a world where everyone had a personal computer in their home, but before I reached high school my world had changed.
To not have a computer was rare, and very uncool. Today as I approach the age of thirty, computers are the norm and social media on those computers is the revolution.
But despite my having grown to the age of an adult, social media, as Lyseggen said, still has a lot to learn and we have a lot to learn about it. There is something wonderful about being able to put your voice into the world, and perhaps social media is the greatest expression of free speech.
Through Twitter, blogs and Facebook each person is able to gain access to anyone who has a connection to the internet - and there is something incredibly powerful about that. However, the words of Lyseggen are still true, social media is a child that is not only yet to be used to its greatest capacity but also yet to be fully understood.
A Network/Internet Optimization Sales Company, Not Salesmen.
By Steve Inman
I recently overheard a conversation in which someone who had just been introduced to our company (and who did not have any experience in IT) asked what it is we did. She received a high-level description of some of our solutions and a description of what we see as the “pillars” of Application Performance Management—Visibility, Prioritization, Acceleration, and Security.
“Wow! Your little company makes all that?” “Oh, no. We’re what’s called a Value Added Reseller. We have partnerships with a number of vendors who make the products, and we go then go out to sell them to other organizations. We don’t actually own any intellectual property—we’re a sales company.” We’re a sales company. Well, that’s true, in the sense that we sell things. That’s true, in the sense that we have to make money to stay in business. That’s true, in the sense that we don’t develop or manufacture the products. That’s true.  But it’s incomplete.
