Software-Defined WAN
High-Performance Networks at Cost-Saving Prices
SD-WAN (Software-Defined Wide Area Network) is a technology that uses Software-defined networking (SDN) concepts to provide software-based control over wide area network connection. It enables distributed organizations to build, operate and manage high-performance networks using readily-available, low-cost public Internet services. An alternative to more expensive technologies such as MPLS, Secure SD-WAN allows retailers, banks, manufacturers and other organizations to connect sites spread over great distances for the purpose of sharing data, applications and services. Features such as intelligent Failover, load balancing help ensure more consistent performance and availability of critical business and SaaS applications.
