With Silver Peak's unique storage forwarding method of deployment, the Velocity solution makes replication acceleration easy for any storage administrator. Deployment takes less than 20 minutes and can be done completely from the storage administrator's domain-no network configuration changes are required. Administrators simply download and install Silver Peak software in the data center and disaster recovery sites, point the Dell Compellent arrays to Silver Peak, and in minutes start accelerating replication traffic.
