1 Web Traffic Offload of MPLS Networks
Jeff Bird, RSM Zscaler

2 Top multinational enterprise network & telecoms priorities
“Which of the following initiatives are likely to be your firm's top telecom adoption priorities over the next 12 months?” 2013 GEN5: Base: 954 Telecoms decision-makers at firms with 1,000 or more employees who are responsible for multicountry or global network and telecoms technology decisions (“critical priority” and “high priority” responses); Source: Forrsights Networks And Telecommunications Survey, Q1 2013

3 Business globalization drives need for a highly available and reliable international site-to-site network Workforces are both increasingly distributed, and mobile. Globalizing business operations demands a highly reliable and resilient corporate network. Globalization resets business, customer and employee expectations about speed of responsiveness and decisions, and for team collaboration. The more internationally distributed a firm’s operations, the bigger the challenge to deliver consistent apps performance. Security becomes a big issue around Web Apps

4 MPLS interest is driven mostly by perceptions of “value for spend”
Reasons for using MPLS - ranked Need more QoS network capacity Need high network reliability, and predictability Want to improve user experience with collaboration and productivity apps Need to upgrade network to support new enterprise communications apps Want a simplified WAN infrastructure Want to improve access to internally hosted, and off-premises hosted and cloud applications Want data traffic routing control including QoS Need a modern and future-proof network Need to integrate disparate networks globally

5 The Age of Mobility (it’s about the Web apps!)
Customer and employee expectations of more , easy to use, mobile apps will change how business is done Drivers IT Challenges Workplace virtualization Collaboration (internal, external) Consumerization (bring-your-own devices, apps) Manage growing complexity (endpoint, network, information security) Cost management – licenses, IT support Direct technology purchases (BYO-T) risk bypass of IT standards

6 Virtualization success rides on getting your Cloud strategy right
Most firms are keen to consolidate data centers A majority will adopt hybrid cloud – own DC + virtual private cloud &/or public cloud (e.g., Office 365, Salesforce, Dropbox, gMail) Many will migrate UC&C app to SaaS models All virtualizing firms are beefing up network security Most firms will shift network and security management towards 3rd party services to help move forward faster and better … Common thread here is more Web traffic…

7 Is MPLS Dead or Have These Reports Been Greatly Exaggerated?

8 Why? The Cloud Goes (Went) Enterprise!
Regional Gateway Cloud Services Business Critical Sales from the road on iPAD Applications HQ DLP Office from everywhere Users APT/0Day Marketing user groups Home or Hotel Personal or business Use Training videos from iPhone Regional Office On-the-go Corporate storage Where is your Corporate Perimeter?

9 3 Trends Transforming Network & Security
Business Users go Mobile Users work from home or on-the-go Users who BYOD 50% 90% Cloud Apps go Mainstream Cloud-based applications used by an enterprise 50 Social goes Enterprise employees use Facebook at work 75% — Impact — Mobile, Cloud & Social: Driving business beyond the corporate network (often without policy & protection) This has broken the traditional trusted “hub & spoke” network. Users are often outside the corporate network accessing cloud-based services. 80% of my MLPS traffic used to be for applications at my HQ and 20% was Internet bound. Now it’s just the opposite.” – CIO, Fortune 50 company

10 Traditional MPLS Networking – Hub & Spoke
NEW YORK SEATTLE MPLS PROVIDER Contact a MPLS Service Provider & Architect 1 Provision a T3 (45 Mbps) per site to provide connectivity to the MPLS network 2 T3 Provision a 1 Gbps Ethernet circuit to provide the “hub” datacenter connectivity to the MPLS network 3 1 GB HQ: SAN JOSE For Internet Access also provision a 1 Gbps Dedicated Internet Line at the “hub” datacenter 4 ATLANTA DATACENTER 1 GB INTERNET

11 Is This The Best Way to Provide Internet Access?
MPLS PROVIDER T3 NEW YORK SEATTLE T3 By volume often 70%+ of MPLS backhauled traffic is Internet bound or Web Traffic port 80 & 443 MPLS Bandwidth is more expensive than commodity Direct Internet Access $$$$$$$ T3 HQ: SAN JOSE T3 1 GB ATLANTA DATACENTER 1 GB INTERNET

12 “Direct 2 Net” Split Tunnel Path to Insecurity?
MPLS PROVIDER Layers of appliances (FW, IPS, AV, DLP, NGFW, BA) are deployed at the “hub” datacenter to secure Internet access! T3 T3 NEW YORK SEATTLE Branch router security (UTM) is one approach to secure local Internet access… T3 HQ: SAN JOSE T3 1 GB … but keeping policy consistent and providing per user policy and reporting/visibility is a nightmare ATLANTA DATACENTER 1 GB Easy way out is to still backhaul… So is MPLS Dead? INTERNET

13 The Web Traffic Offload Approach with Zscaler
INTERNET ISP ISP Purchase inexpensive local Internet access at the branches (often faster/lower latency!) and save $$ 1 MPLS PROVIDER T1 T1 SEATTLE NEW YORK Reduce the size of the MPLS links to a T1 (1.5Mbps) instead of a T3 Link (45 Mbps) and save $$ 2 Reduce the size of the Internet access at the datacenter. Simplify Network & Security and save $$ 3 T1 HQ: SAN JOSE T1 1100 MB Offload your Web traffic to the Zscaler Cloud for security processing! 4 ATLANTA ISP DATACENTER ISP 100 MB INTERNET

14 What Does Typical Security Look Like Today?
Mobile & Distributed Workforce Regional Office Home or Hotspot HQ On-the-go Cloud Services Social Media Cloud Apps Mobile Apps Proxy Server APT/Bot Gateway Application Awaerness URL Web-Filter Antivirus-Filter WAN/SSL Accleration Load Balancer DLP SSL/IPSec VPN Botnet Exploits In a more simplistic picture – the best way to think of Zscaler, is as a global check-post sitting between your employees and the Cloud. In a more technical term some of you might view Zscaler as a Massively scalable and fast Proxy available anytime, globally from any device.

15 What Does Zscaler Do? Global check post Enforces business policy

18 Zscaler: Leader & the Most Visionary
Secure Web Gateway Magic Quadrant …the fastest-growing vendor… …earned the strongest score in Completeness of Vision… …cloud has the largest global footprint… …Zscaler is a very good candidate for most enterprises … Before closing today’s presentation, I would like to point to some important validation that speaks highly to the consideration you should make in the coming months and years. We are very proud of the recognition Gartner has given us as a leading innovator. We are also thrilled that they recognized – through the customer success we just shared – that the Zscaler Direct to Cloud Network is creating a new category and leading the way to facilitate business securely in a world that is becoming more and more Cloud, social and Mobile. It is no accident that many of these customers have seen the compelling benefit and value in deploying Zscaler. We would like the opportunity to further explore how we can be of benefit to your company. ©2013 Zscaler, Inc. All rights reserved.
