AT&T Inc. (NYSE: T) introduced AT&T Application Acceleration this week, a fully managed service within their global Internet Protocol (IP) network and Internet Data Centers, which accelerates the performance and responsiveness of Web-based applications.
The offer will boost the end-user experience for these applications. It will enable businesses to interact more effectively with their online customers and enhance the productivity of employees and suppliers.
The service is available right away to AT&T Enterprise Hosting customers. AT&T Application Acceleration combines global IP networking technology with AT&T managed services and tools to provide a one-stop solution that overcomes slow or unacceptable response times from today’s complex Web-based applications. It makes Web applications work faster, and also allows for more efficiency from their available Web server, Internet access, or Virtual Private Network (VPN) resources.
AT&T Application Acceleration is based on open standards, unlike other acceleration solutions, allowing it to operate transparently to users without requiring custom Web application coding, special Web browser versions or settings, proprietary networks, or equipment located at end-user sites. It also manages requests for dynamic Web content, where content resides in an AT&T Internet Data Center (IDC), by positioning Web traffic manager equipment in conjunction with Web servers and the rest of a customer’s hosted Web application infrastructure.
The AT&T Application Acceleration service is available to both new and existing managed hosting and colocation customers in the AT&T IDCs. Pricing for AT&T Application Acceleration varies based on the configuration of the Web traffic manager equipment, the managed services provided by AT&T, and contract term.
