This whitepaper will examine the escalating application performance and security challenges facing corporations, and show how companies are securing and optimizing the performance of their enterprise applications, such as those from Oracle, with WAN application delivery solutions, such as those from Blue Coat.

Blue Coat enables Oracle applications and other enterprise applications distributed via a WAN to achieve the same response times as those residing in a LAN environment while improving overall security. That in turn meets user expectations and allows the network to enable, rather than impede, critical business processes.
