6 Benefits How SD–WAN Will Improve Your Life

Organisations across the globe are rapidly adopting new technologies to meet customer demand during increasing market competition. It is necessary for their survival to keep pace with emerging trends in the market. Fluctuating customer demands, the introduction of new trends to the market and advancements in the technological sphere always cause big changes in the market.

SD–WAN Accelerating Network Performance

According to 2016’s State of the WAN report, traditional WAN exhibits performance limitations such as latency issues and packet loss at a higher level. In this report, two of the factors among the top five were related to network performance, which is of crucial importance. This is the major reason behind fundamental shift from WAN to SD–WAN.  As we move toward SD-WAN solutions, it is necessary to understand how various aspects of SD-WAN can provide discrete solutions to improve performance of the network.

SD-WAN Going SASE

Wide area networking (WAN) is a traditional networking solution based on multi-protocol label switching (MPLS). In such solutions, the reliability of the connection depends upon the pre-definition of communicating nodes. But these high-performance networking links between the two sites face limited bandwidths and have some other physical constraints. Hardware defined pre-setup is the primary cause in WAN to shift towards a software defined – wide area networking (SD-WAN) solution.
