Firm claims to turn Lotus Notes slug into faster slug

WAN, bang, thank you man

BIG FIRMS with limited bandwidth and high latency that use Lotus Notes need Blue Coat Proxy SG appliances to make their employees work faster and more effectively, er, Blue Coat said.

The firm claimed that tests in its own offices showed that these Proxy SG appliances can speed up the performance of Notes on a WAN at branch offices by 22 times, and reduce the bandwidth by up to 95 per cent.

Which seems an awful lot. Can't IBM do something to speed things up?

The Proxy SG appliances use byte caching compression, protocol optimisation and bandwidth maanagement to give Lotus Notes a kick up the backside on the WAN. Notes apps, claimed Blue Coat, contain databases that have repetitive and compressible elements that respond well to a dose of its Mach 5 technology, it appears. µ

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?

Yes, companies should suffer an immediate death penalty upon being accused of copyright infringement.

Yes, the coppers said the company was breaking the law so it must be guilty.

No, the company and the people accused are innocent until proven guilty.

No, the company had millions of customers who have been harmed by having access to their data files cut off.

I don't care, I never used Megaupload anyway.
