SD-WAN vs SASE by Digital Carbon

The network edge is becoming an important part of the enterprise-owned network that is being used to provide a variety of services. Two of the most popular technologies for the network edge are Software-Defined WAN (SD-WAN) and Secure Access Service Edge (SASE). However, with the rise of new technologies, the network edge is evolving. Traditional technologies are being rapidly replaced with new solutions that provide more functionality and flexibility. One such example is the evolution of traditional Wide Area Network (WAN) into Software Defined-Wide Area Network. While SD-WAN has been around for a while, SASE is a newer term that is being used to describe a secure network edge.

SD-WAN Cloud Security

With an increase in cyber-crimes across the globe, cyber threats are becoming disastrous for vulnerable victim organisations. Whether these are phishers, scammers, viruses or even bots, they can be very dangerous to corporate data. During the days of the pandemic, corporate data had become more vulnerable to cyber attacks with orders to work from home. Hackers across the world are exploiting remote working networks during these unfavorable times, taking advantage of very minor human errors and weak network security layers.

Versa vs Velocloud

Versa Networks and VMware are two major companies providing SD–WAN solutions. Along with other market giants, these are also in competition with each other by offering state-of-the-art capabilities to their customers. As we know,  each business has its own requirements oriented around its customers’ needs. Here, we are going to take a technical overview of the SD–WAN solutions that these companies are providing to analyse their usability for a variety of enterprises.

Getting SASE with SD–WAN by Digital Carbon

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 pre-defined communicating nodes. But these high-performance networking links between the two sites face limited bandwidths along with some other physical constrains. Hardware defined pre-setup in WAN is the major reason to shift towards a software defined – wide area networking (SD–WAN) solution.

Remote Work Solutions by Digital Carbon

Since the outbreak of COVID-19, we are living in the middle of a chaotic situation. As the situation is highly ambitious and even unknown, that is the reason many organizations and businesses are moving towards remote working solutions for continuing operation of their companies. Those who have adopted the remote working solution, are able to continue their business operations as usual. Although not in the same way as before the pandemic, but successful enough to maintain the continuity of their business processes. Due to continuous adoption of remote working solution among the companies, competition is again picking the pace and organizations are trying best to adopt best remote working practices to lead their market share. That is why, it is highly necessary for businesses of all sizes to learn and adopt remote working solutions to pursue their business activities in a productive way.

Silver Peak vs Versa

According to updated reports of the Dell’Oro Group, there are five top SD–WAN vendors who are running toe-to-toe for supremacy in the SD–WAN market share. The year 2019 was seen as a breakout year for the adoption of SD–WAN when it surpassed a $1 billion market share. According to already mentioned reports, Cisco, Versa Network, VMware, Silver Peak and Fortinet are holding high ranking positions, as these top SD–WAN market leaders accounted for a 60% accumulated share in the generated revenue in 2019. But none of them surpassed a 20% share of the market, which shows a high potential for competition among the market giants for dominance. That is why these are still early days for penetration into the market.

VPN vs SD-WAN

An encrypted connection between two or more computers is called a virtual private network, commonly known as a VPN. These VPN connections are subjected to public networks, but exchange of data is private because of encryption. It becomes possible to share and securely access confidential data over public networks using VPNs. For example, corporate employees often use VPNs when they work from home or work remotely to access and share corporate files and applications securely.

SASE by Digital Carbon

Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) is a combinational network architecture of SD–WAN and Remote Access VPN that combines the capabilities of both and delivers them as a service. It combines functionalities and capabilities of SD–WAN and VPN with cloud native security functions, for example, firewalls, secure web gateways, zero trust network access and cloud access security brokers. SASE vendors offer these cloud-delivered functions as a service.
