It is the county seat and largest city of Montgomery County. As of the 2005 census estimate, the population of Dayton was 158,873. -- Client software functionality is now automatically "Injected" into Web Pages to expand the applicability and ease of use of Stampede's Acceleration Solutions Stampede stam·pede n. 1. A sudden frenzied rush of panic-stricken animals. 2. A sudden headlong rush or flight of a crowd of people. 3. (R) Technologies Inc. (www.stampede.com), a leading provider of enterprise acceleration solutions, announced today the release of new client software technology that provides Acceleration On-Demand(TM) capability for enterprise applications. Compatible with Stampede's previous HTTP/HTTPS client that required software to be installed on client devices, this new technology does not require remote devices to be touched or installed with new software. Acceleration On-Demand automatically "injects" the necessary client software into the proper Web pages, and functions with either the Stampede Application Acceleration Series(TM) or the Stampede Web 2.0 Acceleration Performance Series(TM) solutions. Stampede offers a unique approach for maximizing application acceleration through its combination of a hardware appliance A device that is dedicated to a specific function in contrast to a general-purpose computer. The hardware comes pre-installed with its operating system and application. Many consider the router to be the first network appliance. and client software, and converges the functionality of Application Delivery Controllers (ADCs) and WAN Optimization WAN optimization products seek to accelerate a broad range of applications accessed by distributed enterprise users via eliminating redundant transmissions, staging data in local caches, compressing and prioritizing data, and streamlining chatty protocols (e.g., CIFS).. Controllers (WOCs). Two-sided solutions are the only way to successfully solve the bandwidth and latency issues of today's applications; and client software provides the best way to maximize ROI (Return On Investment) The monetary benefits derived from having spent money on developing or revising a system. In the IT world, there are more ways to compute ROI than Carter has liver pills (and for those of you who never heard of that expression, it means a lot). for the enterprise. "Previous versions of Stampede's client software required deployment as an installed component on the user's desktop," said Gordon Dorworth, Stampede Technologies' president and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. . "With our new Acceleration On-Demand technology, we can provide the same level of superior acceleration without the need to touch the end-user device. This saves time and eliminates deployment and management expenses." This new technology is a logical evolution of Stampede's vision for enterprise acceleration, and allows enterprises to offer acceleration to their partners, suppliers and customers. In addition, this new capability is a key component of the recently announced Stampede Web 2.0 Performance Series for SOA (1) (Start Of Authority) The first record in a DNS zone file. See DNS records. (2) (Service Oriented Architecture) The modularization of business functions for greater flexibility and reusability. , XML XML in full Extensible Markup Language. Markup language developed to be a simplified and more structural version of SGML. It incorporates features of HTML (e.g., hypertext linking), but is designed to overcome some of HTML's limitations. and AJAX applications. "Since hardware accelerators and even our previous client software could not be deployed outside of the enterprise, this new capability seamlessly maximizes the user experience for all users of an enterprise's network," said Dorworth. "With the growth of XML and SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) The leading security protocol on the Internet. Developed by Netscape, SSL is widely used to do two things: to validate the identity of a Web site and to create an encrypted connection for sending credit card and other personal data. outside of the enterprise, our Acceleration On-Demand capability is transparently injected into external facing interactions." The Stampede Application Acceleration Series and Stampede Web 2.0 Performance Series appliances are built on industry-standard hardware and software platforms, utilizing the full power of Linux and 64-bit hardware. The new Acceleration On-Demand client technology leverages the full Win32 environment to automatically inject itself into the downloaded Web page to optimize XML, Ajax, HTTP HTTP in full HyperText Transfer Protocol Standard application-level protocol used for exchanging files on the World Wide Web. HTTP runs on top of the TCP/IP protocol. , HTTPS (1) (HyperText Transport Protocol Secure) The protocol for accessing a secure Web server. Using HTTPS in the URL instead of HTTP directs the message to a secure port number rather than the default Web port number of 80. and .NET environments; introducing significant financial savings, while at the same time increasing performance, response times and scalability of enterprise servers. Availability Stampede's Acceleration On-Demand client will be available Aug. 1 as part of the Stampede Application Acceleration Series or the Stampede Web 2.0 Performance Series solutions. Client licensing starts at $35 for a single license, and appliance pricing starts at $35,000.
