Naizak to showcase Riverbed Technology at Arab Telsat 2007 in Oman

'Naizak will just be one of the international exhibitors in this first-ever major event in Oman for the region's vibrant telecom and ICT industry,' said C.J. Paul, general manager of Omanexpo LLC, the leading exhibition management company in the sultanate.

'The exhibition and conference will showcase the most advanced products and technologies as well as discuss the latest developments in the industry.'

Naizak will be offering a range of products and services during the event, among which is the Riverbed Steelhead, a product that is the pioneer and market leader in Wide Area Data Services (WDS). Developed by the US-based Riverbed Technology, the Steelhead is the first comprehensive solution to a host of severe problems that plague enterprise applications operating across wide area networks (WAN).

With the revolutionary Steelhead, problems such as poor application performance, insufficient, expensive or congested network bandwidth into remote offices, difficulties in IT consolidation, challenges with slow remote data backup and replication, and increasing demands of the mobile workforce are now a thing of the past.

Riverbed's market-leading wide area data services (WDS) solutions address all of these issues by improving the throughput of applications that enterprises rely on every day - including file sharing, email, backup, SSL, document management systems, and IT tools, as well as ERP and CRM solutions, giving remote users LAN-like performance on WAN.

Naizak will be participating in Arab Telsat 2007 as a representative of global brands such as Aruba Networks, Rajant Corp (Breadcrumb), Alcatel Lucent, and many others, in addition to Riverbed Technology. In partnership with these companies, Naizak will be offering IT solutions integration that caters to the specific requirements of industry clients throughout the Middle East.
