What Does Wide-Area Network Optimization Controllers (WOCs) Mean?
Wide-area network optimization controllers (WOCs) are appliances that optimize the bandwidth of a wide-area network in order to improve end-user experience.They enable application centralization by reducing bandwidth costs and mitigating latency effects through network-level optimization, bandwidth reduction algorithms and various other protocol spoofing and optimization techniques used in the application layer that may compensate and help with lossy links.
