"Certeon's aCelera Virtual Appliance maximizes the performance benefits which Microsoft App-V and SCCM bring to these environments, while at the same time directly contributing to lower application management labor costs."
David Greschler, Director, Integrated Virtualization & Management Strategy, Microsoft Corporation
Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager 2007 (SCCM) provides a cohesive management infrastructure for delivering, updating, and inventorying locally installed and virtualized applications to desktops throughout a distributed enterprise. Although SCCM efficiently manages the application life cycle, the network in a distributed environment can cause additional challenges that result in greater complexity and diminished efficiency.
Some of these challenges include:
To meet the cost savings, performance, and scalability needs of these distributed and virtualized application environments, Certeon has provided support for Microsoft SCCM on its aCelera Virtual Appliance for Application Acceleration. Certeon aCelera creates a virtualized distribution infrastructure as an extension of a centralized Microsoft SCCM solution.
aCelera software enables Microsoft SCCM traffic to be de-duplicated and compressed, reducing application distribution times to remote branches by more than 95%.

Certeon aCelera's capabilities deliver significant TCO-lowering benefits, including the following:
Overall IT capital and operations cost is dramatically lowered, as the overall SCCM infrastructure is transformed from complex servers in remote locations to simply configured, easily deployed and managed virtual appliances running as additional workloads on industry-standard servers.
