The move to SaaS and Cloud services, combined with the demand to work from anywhere, is causing enterprises to rethink the way they connect and secure their operations. While conventional practices involved users connecting to corporate data centre’s for accessing business applications, the current trend favours accessing these applications directly in the cloud.
The solution lies in Software-Defined Wide Area Networking (SD-WAN), which streamlines the WAN infrastructure, reduces costs, enhances bandwidth efficiency, and seamlessly connects users to cloud-based applications. This approach significantly improves application performance, especially for critical applications, without compromising security and data privacy.
Not all SD-WANs are created equal.
SD-WANs are a combination of technologies: underlay (the forwarding plane) and overlay (the control plane). However, both the underlay and the overlay can vary greatly in their capabilities and features. The art of designing a comprehensive SD-WAN service is in the understanding and translation of business needs into a working technology solution. Accompanied by the knowledge and experience of knowing which vendors and carriers are best suited to the challenge.
