BIG PLANS IN IT = INCREASED NETWORK DEPENDENCY Disaster recovery Protect more data across longer distances over converged networks Data center consolidation/cloud Data and server placement impacted by WAN performance Server & storage centralization Users farther from resources Real-time collaboration Improve quality of unified communications (voice/video) Virtualization Multi-site VDI and VM migration impacted by poor WAN quality

ENTERPRISE WAN CHALLENGES Enterprises are increasingly dependent on the WAN IT resources centralized, users distributed Shift to private/public/hybrid clouds Dynamic array of applications Increasing amount of real-time traffic Enterprise WANs are a disparate collection of network services Private line, MPLS, Internet, cloud, satellite, …

DON’T LET YOUR WAN BE THE WEAK LINK
