Riverbed to Participate at Autodesk University 2008

SAN FRANCISCO, CA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- Nov 28, 2008 -- Riverbed Technology (NASDAQ: RVBD), the technology and market leader in wide-area data services, today announced that it will participate at Autodesk University taking place December 2 - 5, 2008 at The Venetian Resort Hotel in Las Vegas. Attendees can visit Riverbed (booth #304) to learn how Riverbed® Steelhead® appliances offer designers and engineers the ability to collaborate across long distances as if they were in the same office, sharing enormous CAD files with ease. Additionally, a Riverbed spokesperson is participating in a panel discussion featuring competing WAN optimization vendors.

"For firms with distributed offices or a global presence, sharing and collaborating on large CAD documents can often lead to significant delays in accessing drawings during normal file open and save operations," said Alan Saldich, vice president of product marketing and alliances. "Many firms estimate that design engineers can spend one-quarter to one full hour a day on remote file operations, dramatically reducing the available working time per person. These delays impact productivity and overall time-to-market for customers, and, ultimately, delivery to the client."

When using the Riverbed WAN optimization solution, enterprises using Autodesk applications can experience up to 100X increased application acceleration and bandwidth utilization reduction by up to 98%. Whether users exchange CAD files via FTP, email, or through a remote-file shares, Steelhead appliances can considerably improve the speed with which those files move over a WAN. To learn more about Riverbed solutions and how they compare to alternatives, conference-goers can attend the industry panel discussion moderated by IT Director/CAD Manager for Wright-Pierce and Riverbed customer Ray Sirois:
