Energy

Offshore energy companies have complicated networks that consist of a collection of satellite, wireless and terrestrial links. FileCatalyst’s software-based solution is designed to accelerate and optimize file transfers across these networks with on-the-fly compression and byte level incremental transfers to maximize throughput. In many cases, data transferred by energy companies is highly compressible. In addition to getting it there at full speed, FileCatalyst can likely take transfer speeds 2x or more past the link capacity.

BHP Billiton; the world's largest diversified resources company requires the ability to send large amounts of data from remote sites to centralized locations. BHP requirements were simple: provide a solution that would enhance their existing network infrastructure, require very low maintenance and provide ease of use. FileCatalyst provided the ideal solution for a mesh style deployment enabling BHP to mirror data across their network. Now BHP is able to maximize their infrastructure, and required no line or hardware upgrades.

 

PPL Corporation is Fortune 500 utility company with international operations servicing US, UK and South America. PPL's main goal was to remove the complexity of transferring large files for its employees. Using FilesCatalyst Web, PPL is able to send 2-5 gigabytes of files per day through the application. The cost savings has resulted in a ROI in less than 1 year.
