New managed service powered by Riverbed offers performance benefits to end users and creates a value-add revenue stream for Nuvias partners

London, England: 8th November, 2016 - Nuvias has teamed up with Riverbed Technologies to offer a unique service that delivers proactive monitoring, alerting and reporting for Riverbed SteelHead™ and SteelFusion™ solutions. The highly flexible and adaptable service provides recommendations to improve WAN acceleration performance, reduce problem resolution times, identify and isolate persistent performance issues and avoid unplanned expenditure to maximise ROI.

Nuvias Managed Service seamlessly integrates with new or existing SteelHead or SteelFusion deployments. Through real-time analysis and detailed quarterly reports the service enables partners to help their customers optimise network traffic based on business priorities and demands, as well as provide vital forecasts based on existing and future system capacity.

Developed by industry leading consultants, exclusively for Riverbed SteelHead and SteelFusion solutions, the service provides a real-time visibility and reporting portal. The service also offers features such as availability monitoring, performance remediation and service reinstatement along with the continual management of all moves, additions, changes and deletions.
