Most enterprise digital transformation initiatives embrace a cloud-first strategy for hosting today’s evolving mix of applications. They must connect users securely and directly to business applications from anywhere, across any type of WAN and from any device.

As SD-WAN adoption continues to gain ground and go mainstream in 2017, the majority of initial enterprise deployments will be hybrid, leveraging both MPLS and a complement of broadband connectivity.

As enterprise IT considers ways to improve WAN functionality and service levels while lowering costs, the interest in SD-WANs has dramatically increased. Almost all of today’s SD-WAN solutions support dynamic path selection from multiple WAN services including MPLS and broadband Internet, centralized provisioning to increase IT efficiency and zero-touch provisioning to enable rapid deployment.

PERFORMANCE MATTERS

While most SD-WAN offerings improve network agility and reduce WAN costs, Silver Peak enables enterprises to build a modern WAN that drives maximum value from cloud and digital transformation initiatives with a self-driving network that learns and adapts to the needs of the business.

The Unity EdgeConnect M is a 1U rack-mountable platform that serves to build an SD-WAN fabric using Zero Touch Provisioning. It supports MPLS, 4G/LTE, and Internet-based hybrid WAN data paths and a control plane that is automated and secured by the Unity Orchestrator software to provide policy-based virtual network segmentation and acceleration of on-premise and SaaS cloud applications.

30 second video highlights how the WAN is evolving and how enterprises have become frustrated with the high cost and complexity of MPLS. This 30 second animated video highlights the benefits of moving to an SD-WAN architecture that leverages broadband connectivity.
