Your WAN is a Mess, Freshen it up With SD-WAN

Security is a huge concern for any enterprise network. With more and more people working from home, remote access and endpoint security become crucial. When it comes to SD-WAN security, you have questions: Which best-of-breed security options are available? What about built-in security? And what does Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) mean from an architecture perspective?

In this webinar, we’ll answer those questions and more. VMware SD-WAN™ by VeloCloud® provides comprehensive security for all software-defined networking planes – control, management, and data – including how to closely monitor network access. Because one size doesn’t fit all, we’ll discuss our own security features and our best-of-breed partner integrations. The webinar will also help you understand what SASE is and how VMware SD-WAN uses SASE architecture to provide high-quality, secure remote access.

Join Jason Chan, Dell Sr. Director of Global Network Services and Marco Murgia, Sr. Director of Product Engineering at VMware, as they discuss why Dell chose to implement the VMware SD-WAN solution. This chat will provide insight into what changes Dell’s network has seen since implementing SD-WAN and how it has affected their IT costs.

Come join us to learn about our partnership with Zoom and how VMware SD-WAN™ by VeloCloud® can deliver high quality Zoom sessions, even over a congested network. We’ll also walk through how we can help with your business continuity initiatives.

VMware SD-WAN™ by VeloCloud® delivers reliable, secure and efficient branch to cloud connectivity as an integral part of a holistic solution. With the integration of AIOps features, VMware SD-WAN Orchestrator (VCO) and vRealize Network Insights, VMware offers a comprehensive solution that includes correlated end-to-end visibility, actionable insights for self-healing and predictive analysis for proactive resolution. In this session you will learn how VMware SD-WAN delivers an exceptional user experience for real time applications like Horizon VDI.

In the 2019 Frost & Sullivan Global Cloud end-user survey, 57% of the respondents indicated they have deployed Cloud IaaS and 41% say they currently use SaaS applications. Increase application availability or uptime, and deliver applications faster to users, are among the top five reasons businesses are embracing cloud. However, implementing and maintaining a secure, high performing WAN that allows for efficient access to cloud-based applications can be costly and complex for enterprises, whether large or small. SD-WAN solutions automate the process of network selection and put traffic steering control in the hands of your organization’s network administrators to do direct internet breakout to cloud-based applications.

VMware SD-WAN offers a unique approach of a cloud-hosted SD-WAN service with cloud-based gateways that complements branch deployments that provides connectivity for cloud and SaaS applications while eliminating the challenges of deploying and maintaining SD-WAN appliances in the cloud. The SD-WAN gateway approach has been even more significant in the current COVID-19 situation as remote workers connect to cloud over residential broadband links.

Please join VMware and Frost & Sullivan on this webinar to learn about:

• How SD-WAN plays a critical role in Cloud connectivity
• The value of extending SD-WAN to remote workers
• Why VMware's SD-WAN Gateway approach is unique and delivers superior value for cloud networking
• Examples of customers on how they utilized VMware SD-WAN to transition to remote working environment

With the rise of cloud computing, enterprises can host applications in their data centers and in IaaS and SaaS clouds, enabling their users to access these applications from anywhere. The traditional remote-access VPN solution for applications has a lot of drawbacks in today’s environment and is no longer effective. Enterprises are choosing Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) for adaptable network designs focused on users, identity, and applications. Learn how VMware Secure Access uses ZTNA and a network of worldwide managed service nodes to provide remote users with consistent, optimal, and secure application access.

With more than 90% of employees worldwide working from home, the need for better connectivity is greater than ever. Legacy, inflexible WAN technologies like MPLS were never designed for such a distributed workforce. That creates a mismatch between network performance and employees’ end user experiences with their applications.

An over-the-top SD-WAN deployment is a simple and reliable way for end users to take advantage of the cloud, while preserving existing network investment. Making the transition to SD-WAN can seem overwhelming, but it’s really not as complex as you think. VMware SD-WAN™ by VeloCloud® was designed with simplicity as a main goal—without sacrificing security, flexibility, or speed.

In this webinar, you’ll learn best practices and recommendations for a successful SD-WAN transformation for both regional and worldwide deployments. We will also show you how VMware SD-WAN can enable your enterprise to adopt work-from-home strategies during these unprecedented times.

Multi-location organizations need better application performance and resiliency to keep their businesses running and customers satisfied.

Enterprises have transformed their businesses and adopt digital workspace solutions, and they are looking to provide the same technologies to remote workers during COVID-19. Join us in this webinar to learn how QOS Networks and VMware SD-WAN address the challenges in policy management, security, performance, stability, speed of deployment when rolling out a Work @ Home solution. We will also look at how a large national retail financial services company enabled 9k employees to work from home in record time with VMware SD-WAN.

Join this webinar to learn:
· Why traditional VPNs lack the scalability needed for widespread Work @ Home
· How to support policy and security management for the home worker
· Why SD-WAN can improve the performance and stability of home broadband
· About real-world deployment experiences for a large scale Work @ Home project
· How 24x7 monitoring and proactive support can improve ROI for remote employees

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is enabling business continuity with SD-WAN. With an increasingly distributed workforce, business continuity is more essential now than ever. It is critical that your workforce is able to run the business from anywhere, regardless of the network topology, applications, or WAN infrastructure.

If your underlying network is not designed for these challenges presented, employee productivity can be dramatically reduced. Join us in this webinar to learn about VMware SD-WAN™ by VeloCloud® and how it can ensure business continuity while simplifying operations. We will discuss the different use cases, deployment options, and how they can help your users get connected in the office, at home, or remote locations. The demo shown will self-destruct after viewing.

SD-WAN is a relatively new technology compared to routing, switching constructs. SD-WAN started off with the goal of reducing MPLS costs by utilizing lower cost Internet/public WAN links. While this still holds true today, the use cases for SD-WAN have expanded greatly over time. Some use cases are unique for a particular vertical and many are common across verticals. What are the critical use cases of an SD-WAN solution that helps organizations transform their enterprise networks? With more than sixty vendors who claim to sell SD-WAN, how do you choose a winner?

This webinar provides a comprehensive set of use cases and common drivers behind enterprises’ transition to VMware SD-WAN by VeloCloud.
