Enterprise Cache Management

Your field personnel depend on web applications for their enterprise content, so your web applications need Enterprise Cache Management to ensure maximum productivity. The Mobolize Enterprise Cache Management solution ensures that the business-class web applications which your field service personnel, sales representatives, and remote offices depend upon are:

• Always available regardless of internet connection, so field users are always productive
• Always fast regardless of distance or bandwidth, with quick page loads and file accesses for your remote workforce, even over DSL, cellular or satellite connections
• Always responsive, by reducing the workload on your IT infrastructure and delivering greater performance and capacity without increasing operating costs

Enterprise Cache Management enables you to centrally control and manage the caching of your corporate web content as close as possible to your users. Caching is the primary way content is accelerated on the Web, and the closer the content, the faster and more reliably it can be served to the user. Without Enterprise Cache Management, there is no way to guarantee that your enterprise web pages or files will be cached when your users need it. The Mobolize centrally managed caching solution, which takes a few minutes to set up, resides invisibly on the end-user PC, and ensures the best user experience for the web applications you rely on - regardless of whether the user's connection is dropped, the server that supports them fails, or the network slows to a crawl. The Mobolize Enterprise Cache Management system ensures that the web content your workforce needs is always available and fast - resulting in the best possible field personnel performance.

How does this compare to other acceleration or offline solutions?

High Availability - Offline Solutions

If you need to ensure constant access to the web applications that power field personnel performance, and increase the speed of web application content delivery, Mobolize offers a new vision of how to deliver top field results. No longer do employees need to learn how to use a custom client application to keep data available. Mobolize delivers the critical data that field workers need to get their job done in the same way they access it already - through the web browser - so there is nothing new to learn. This means that even when their internet connection is slow, intermittent, or non-existent, your field personnel will be able to access your web content quickly - just as if they had a constant high-speed internet connection.

Since Mobolize delivers a high-availability experience from the browser, productivity is guaranteed continuously and seamlessly with the full web application, while either online or offline, which is something other offline products with their own custom interfaces cannot do.

Content Delivery Networks (CDNs)

Caching is also at the heart of CDN performance, and CDNs work by serving content from multiple points throughout the Internet so that content can be delivered more quickly than from the origin server. While this network-based approach may work well for public web sites, CDNs are ill-suited for corporate web applications, since they cannot cache VPN-delivered content, and they are not secure for caching SSL-delivered sensitive corporate data. CDNs may result in server load reductions, but the amount of bandwidth consumed by each user is the same, so they don't help problems created by a slow internet connection at the endpoint PC.

Since Mobolize enables you to centrally manage the caching of your corporate web content invisibly at the endpoint PC, it does not require any changes to your enterprise SSL security or network infrastructure. Mobolize gives users fast access to their cached data under any network scenario, while simultaneously reducing the server load and bandwidth usage that the endpoint PC typically utilizes. When deployed together with a CDN, the Mobolize caching technology integrates seamlessly to improve the performance and reduce the cost of CDNs, by lightening the network and server loads.

Since Mobolize is a software-only solution that manages the caching of web content closest to the user on the user's PC, it is the simplest, fastest, and most inexpensive way to deliver corporate web content to your users.

WAN Optimization Controllers (WOCs)

Like CDNs, WOCs also utilize generalized caching to accelerate the speed of web applications and reduce server load. However, this approach requires the high cost, installation, and maintenance of WOC appliances across your corporate locations, limiting their overall economic applicability for small remote offices, distributed work environments and field personnel. With the Mobolize software-only solution, there is no need to invest in any additional infrastructure. The Mobolize solution manages caches on the endpoint computer that are completely personalized to each end user, resulting in the fastest possible access to corporate web content, as well as the highest possible server load and bandwidth reductions - both for documents and web pages. When deployed together with WOCs, Mobolize will integrate seamlessly to reduce the load on WOCs, increasing their performance and useful life.
