On February 10th, a user called mikez posted an entry to the Performance Hall of Fame called "Riverbed made my _LAN_ the BOTTLENECK!!". We love posts like that, and we're very pleased to say that a lot of other people loved it too. It received the most kudos of any posting since it was posted, and so it is the March winner of the Performance Hall of Fame.
How could you hate an entry that starts with:
"Why is our DR re-replication taking so long?" my supervisor asks. "Is Riverbed working properly?"
After
a little research, my answer was: "Yes...too well, in fact -- our
100Mbps LAN is actually the bottleneck. We need to upgrade to gig
switches so that our LAN can keep up with our WAN!!"
Congratulations, mikez. You'll be hearing from us soon, and we hope to interview you and blog about your success.
Thanks for playing!
