Velocity™ Yields Turnkey Solution, Facilitates Rapid Deployment and End-to-End Response Time Monitoring

FineGround, the leader in web application optimisation, has announced its Velocity™ appliance. FineGround Velocity, already in production at leading organizations, delivers FineGround's patent-pending Performance Suite software pre-packaged as a turnkey appliance. The Velocity appliance typically provides 300 percent performance gains for enterprise web applications including email, collaboration, portals, and more.

As organizations evolve towards increased automation of business processes, mission critical applications extend outward from corporate headquarters to the branch offices over wide-area networks (WANs). While the performance of these applications is acceptable at corporate headquarters, poor application usage for remote workers or at branch locations translates into poor productivity and poor business efficiency. Poor application performance also results in poor application adoption, which results in diminished application ROI.

"Companies today recognize that poor application performance directly hinders their business," said Jay Mellman, vice president of Marketing at FineGround. "The first reaction for some is to increase network capacity but this does little to address the broad spectrum of bottlenecks impeding application performance in the enterprise. We provide a turn-key, cost-effective Suite approach that tackles performance degradation at the application layer without requiring changes to the IT infrastructure."

FineGround Performance Suite
The FineGround Performance Suite offers end-to-end performance optimization and monitoring of enterprise application infrastructure without requiring additional client software, server software, or server agents.

FineGround Performance Suite comprises of an Application Optimization solution as well as an agentless Application Monitoring solution. FineGround provides enterprises the flexibility to address application performance with either a software or appliance approach. With similar pricing between the software and appliance offerings, the FineGround Performance Suite is available according to a customer deployment preference.
