Traditional WAN was built with the assumption that all applications would be hosted at a centralized on-premises data center. In this model, traffic forwarding was based on destination IP. Enterprises today are migrating slowly but steadily to cloud-based applications, either in the form of IaaS or SaaS. With this dramatic shift in where the applications reside, organizations must reevaluate their approach to WAN architecture and pursue a solution that ensures predictable application performance leading to a network transformation.

SD-WAN helps solve this challenge and much more. VMware SD-WAN by VeloCloud provides enterprises with the ability to leverage Internet links to connect to the Cloud both public and SaaS, instead of backhauling that traffic to a data center. Some applications will still reside in the data center, so businesses need application visibility at the edges and application-based traffic forwarding to their respective destinations.

This webinar will explore multiple SD-WAN use cases for enterprises looking to begin their SD-WAN journey and outline the unique features and benefits VMware SD-WAN provides.

VMware SD-WAN by VeloCloud is leading the SD-WAN revolution.

There are more than 60 vendors who claim to sell SD-WAN, but when evaluating a solution, it’s important to look for one that caters to a variety of use cases and performs well in scaled environments. Additionally, the majority of SD-WAN deployments are brownfield and no customer wants to rip and replace their current infrastructure. How does VMware SD-WAN solve these customer concerns? Come join us to find out.

According to Forbes, IoT is forecasted to have 50-75% of enterprise data generated at the network edge by the year 2020; and at the same time, 83% of enterprise workload will be in the cloud by 2020. The WAN network will become more important in delivering these services to ensure high quality application performance and seamless operational technology (OT). This session will examine how SD-WAN directly enables IoT use cases by prioritizing business-critical applications, ensuring cost savings with zero-touch deployments and usage of internet links, and much more.

Enterprises are transforming their business to stay competitive in today’s rapidly changing digital world and IT must keep pace with these evolving business requirements. Enterprise WAN is no exception--enterprise IT must transform the WAN edge to be the cloud and compute edge, to ensure end-to-end application performance and continuity, and to do all of this and more in an agile, scalable, secure and cost-effective fashion.

SD-WAN has emerged as the enabler of WAN transformation. It has quickly evolved in a few short years from a connectivity infrastructure to a services platform. An ideal SD-WAN platform must encompass built-in and extensible security, support services such as analytics and application performance monitoring, an optimized migration path to a hybrid/multi-cloud strategy, and much more.
