Organizations are growing at a crazy speed. Connecting businesses, branches, and remote offices securely to the cloud and enterprise systems has become more challenging than ever. One of the best solutions to this massive growth rate is SD-WAN. Let’s take a closer look at it.
First, let’s define what is SD-WAN?
Software-Defined Wide-Area Networking (SD-WAN) is a technique for using software to make wide-area networks more intelligent and flexible. SD-WAN usually connects sites directly to the internet through broadband, so you don’t have to send all your traffic through a private line to a regional office (known as MPLS – Multiprotocol Label Switching). One of the great benefits of SD-WAN is that the configurations and the access policies can be centrally managed and easily applied across all sites, which eliminates the need for manual administration of each WAN device.
Why is SD-WAN important?
Digital transformation, globalization, the use of modern cloud-based applications and technologies are creating new business opportunities, which are bringing changes across every industry. The first step for every organization is to ensure its increasingly distributed workforce has fast, safe, and constantly accessible resources. The traditional ways of connecting widely dispersed branch offices and remote offices are often unsafe and do not meet modern requirements. Nowadays, businesses need flexible and cost-effective IT solutions to maintain a competitive edge in the market. They need solutions, which are easy to implement and meet the needs of their growing businesses. Companies need to be confident that the networking solutions they choose are always on and reliable.
SD-WAN provides new approaches that also bring enterprise scale and security. This is the main reason why it’s becoming one of the most popular networking solutions on the market today.
