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. This webinar will walk through the unique features of VMware SD-WAN that have contributed to its status as a recognized leader in this space. 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.
