Tennessee Oncology leverages Unity EdgeConnect for application-based network segmentation to secure patient information from LAN to WAN to LAN

An SD-WAN can bring new levels of performance and availability to mobile-based business use cases using 4G LTE (Long Term Evolution) connectivity. In fact, SD-WAN for mobile-based business applications is spawning a new set of specialized, managed, cloud-based service opportunities for service providers in industries such as on-site construction management, emergency support services and remote logistics management.

As organizations continue to adopt Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) applications and cloud infrastructure (IaaS), exploding traffic levels and changing traffic patterns are prompting enterprises to reevaluate their Wide Area Networks (WANs). In virtually every market segment, applications are moving to the cloud and a decreasing number are hosted on-premise in the data center. To compound the networking challenge, application bandwidth requirements continue to increase to deliver a superior user experience.

Get prepared for the latest in SD-WAN and Industry trends heading your way in 2018.

Watch industry expert and Silver Peak Founder & CEO David Hughes deliver his annual predictions for the future of networking in his annual on-demand Crystal Ball webinar available now.

Tune in to hear David discuss:

Securing applications no matter where they reside is a key requirement for cloud-first enterprises. EdgeConnect orchestrates app-driven security policies based on a built-in stateful firewall and simplified service chaining with cloud-based security gateways and next-generation firewall vendors.

Enterprise momentum behind digital transformation and the continued rise of cloud-hosted applications challenge the effectiveness and need for a traditional router-centric WAN architecture.

See how Silver Peak First-packet iQ enables organizations to reach cloud-based applications, SaaS, IaaS and trusted web traffic directly to the Internet from branch offices. It intelligently identifies applications on first packet and dynamically steers traffic to its destination on an app-by-app basis.

Securing applications no matter where they reside is a key requirement for cloud-first enterprises. EdgeConnect has built-in  stateful firewall and simplifies integration with security ecosystem partners. It enables orchestration of app-driven security policies. All leading to securing sites quickly while reducing errors, faster response to threats and automated app security.

Today’s cloud-connected enterprise demands a new WAN architecture, an SD-WAN, to meet the performance and security requirements for SaaS and IaaS. As SD-WAN technology evolves, new levels of automation, security and architectural simplification have emerged. First-packet application classification is an advanced capability that automatically steers trusted SaaS and web traffic directly to the internet and unknown or suspicious traffic to a next-generation firewall for additional security inspection.
