SD-WAN: Connecting multiple sites simply and effectively
SD-WAN is an approach that simplifies the management and operation of a Wide Area Network, giving greater flexibility, control and visibility for multi-site organisations. Gartner predicts that by 2023 more than 90% of WAN refresh initiatives will be based on this approach.
A key advantage of SD-WAN is that it allows organisations to build high performance networks using standard business internet services, enabling them to replace more expensive and restrictive private WAN technologies like MPLS.
We’ve partnered with Draytek and Meraki to offer a range of SD-WAN services to assist with centralised cloud management for security, networking and application control.
The ability to support multiple connection types
All connection types are supported, so you can be led entirely by the individual requirements of the site and network infrastructure available at each individual location, including:
- Business broadband using ADSL, FTTC and FTTP
- Mobile via 4G, LTE and 5G as it is rolled out
- Ethernet leased lines at 100Mb, 1Gb and 10Gb.
Importantly, we can provide these via any telecom’s carrier, including BT Wholesale, TalkTalk Business, Virgin Media Business and CityFibre. SD-WAN is usually deployed over Direct Internet Access services, however if you are still running a legacy MPLS service across locations, it is also possible to incorporate this into the network to create a hybrid infrastructure and enable migration over time.
