Riverbed Introduces New Data Express Service for Large-Scale AI Data Movement

New SaaS offering deployed on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Moves Petabyte-Scale Datasets at Speeds Up to 10X Faster Than Traditional Solutions, Radically Improving Time to Value for Enterprise AI

Dubai, United Arab Emirates – November 4, 2025 – Riverbed, the leader in AIOps for observability and in data acceleration, today introduced its new Riverbed Data Express Service enabling enterprises to radically accelerate the movement of massive datasets now required to prepare and deploy AI models at scale—reaching data transfer speeds up to 10 times faster than current industry solutions —improving a customer’s time to value and lowering costs. Enterprises are racing to build large language models with tens of petabytes of data scattered across data centers, edge environments, and multiple public clouds. Moving this data to AI-optimized GPU clusters often takes months, delaying time-to-value and increasing costs. With the new Riverbed Data Express Service, what once took months can now be completed in days—giving organizations the speed and security of data delivery now required to prosper in the AI era.

Built on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), Riverbed’s Data Express Service utilizes post-quantum cryptography (PQC) to move petabyte-scale datasets through secure VPN tunnels to ensure that customer data remains protected during the transfer process. The service includes enterprise-grade controls for secure access to data as well as the option to deploy data mover agents in customer tenants to enable additional security controls.

“With today’s announcement of the Riverbed Data Express Service, we will be helping customers overcome one of the biggest barriers to AI adoption—getting the right data to the right location, with industry-leading speed and security,” said Dave Donatelli, CEO of Riverbed. “In the first half of this year, we experienced strong demand in our overall business, achieving 77% year-over-year bookings growth.
