PacketShaper® System Architecture
Packeteer's "intelligent overlay" of WAN application optimization technologies bridges the gap between a diverse application environment and your IP network infrastructure.
Layer 7 Plus Classification
Leverage deep application classification to understand what's really running on your network, troubleshoot issues and allocate resources according to business, not bandwidth, demands.

Enjoy true QoS for all applications across the WAN—make sure your critical business applications get the priority they deserve.
Compression/Caching
Quickly increase WAN capacity, improving application performance and user response times with application-intelligent, file-aware compression and caching.
Protocol Acceleration
Don't let the WAN slow business down. Packeteer's acceleration technologies overcome sluggish network performance to speed up applications.
Branch Office in a Box
Deliver local IT services locally. Consolidate multiple server functions onto a single device to simplify management and streamline branch office IT.
WAFS
Leverage file-aware WAFS technology to ensure lightning-fast access and complete data integrity and consistency—even in the event of WAN disruption.
iShaper Dual Plane Architecture
iShaper Dual Plane architecture provides technology where it makes the most sense — combining out-of-band WAFS and branch services with inline WAN optimization working synergistically at the branch office.
Blue Coat has acquired Packeteer, a leading provider of intelligent WAN Optimization solutions. Blue Coat ProxySG is and will remain our strategic product offering for WAN Optimization. We will continue selling PacketShaper, IntelligenceCenter and PolicyCenter and invest heavily in development to revitalize the PacketShaper technologies and feature sets and integrate those into the Blue Coat ProxySG product line. Packeteer's iShared, iShaper, SkyX and Mobiliti products currently will remain available for sale to existing customers. However, we are not recommending or proposing that new customers purchase these products. We are currently assessing plans for these products and will soon announce decisions as to their future status.
