Case Study: Keysight Technologies achieves 25% network performance improvement and faster troubleshooting with Riverbed Alluvio and SteelHead

Keysight Technologies - Customer Case Study

Keysight Technologies, a global electronics test and measurement manufacturer, needed deeper network and application visibility to troubleshoot performance issues and manage daily large-file transfers across offices. The company struggled to isolate dependencies and detect problems early due to tightly integrated toolsets and heavy intersite traffic.

Keysight expanded its Riverbed deployment—using Alluvio NPM (AppResponse and NetProfiler), network packet brokers, and SteelHead WAN acceleration—to gain real-time and historical packet-level insight and optimize WAN traffic. The solution delivered about a 25% improvement in network/application performance, faster long-distance file transfers and backups, quicker troubleshooting and root-cause analysis, and more proactive issue resolution that has driven toward near‑zero user tickets.
