Demand for cloud and mobile technologies is higher than ever. To keep up, you have to offer better application performance, because reaching more people in more places is just the beginning. Doing it quickly and reliably is another story.
Download the solution briefOur Managed SD WAN with Application Aware Routing platform measures and monitors performance of multiple services in your hybrid network. It uses application routing to offer more granular control of where and when an application uses a specific service. This allows your enterprise to make better use of your overall network because capacity that may have been dormant in fail-over networks is included in an active/active configuration.

Our Managed SD WAN platform also allows you to offload Internet-bound traffic, which means private WAN services remain available for real-time and mission-critical apps. This added flexibility helps improve traffic flow and reduces pressure on your network.
Finally, with traditional private WAN services, security is normally embedded and centralized. Instead, Managed SD WAN overlays a single security policy, often in the form of virtual private network (VPN) tunnels across the entire infrastructure. This single policy allows you to standardize your security across your network.
Our Managed SD WAN platform offers a number of distinct advantages over traditional WAN, helping to deliver faster, more reliable application performance.
SD WAN brings powerful new features, but along with the many benefits comes additional complexity in security, quality of service (QoS), protocols, service types, devices, controllers and operating systems. And while you may want to adopt hybrid platforms, you may not have staff with the expertise to manage the risks that come with that added complexity. Verizon Managed Services can support your SD WAN and help your enterprise move forward confidently wih your implementation.
| Challenges of SD WAN | Benefits of our Managed SD WAN solution | |
|---|---|---|
Moving from a traditional, IP destination address, per-packet-based approach to an end-to-end, pplication-aware approach | Standardized SD WAN operational practice helps simplify consumption and speed transition while providing positive return on investment | |
Security implications of public IP services and internet breakout options | Multiple security options, including cloud-based firewalls, provide flexibility to balance compliance and risk with performance | |
Multiple access-service types, multiple service providers | We can bond multiple services into a single service with a unified view into performance reporting, change management and troubleshooting | |
Moving from multiple in-house-managed and carrier-managed WANs to an overlay WAN | Global WAN SLA includes many third-party service providers | |
Updating application routing rules as new users, applications and changing business patterns impact WAN performance | Tested change-management processes help you avoid unnecessary downtime from configuration errors | |
Obtaining accurate application inventory and applying reporting metrics to improve routing and utilization | Our reporting platforms and processes observe, analyze and recommend changes based on application behavior | |
Integrating new reporting and changing management platforms for application visibility | You can easily turn on and scale as-a-service platforms to support your growing implementation with project management oversight for delivery | |
Cost of hiring, training, building and maintaining application-centric routing and management systems, people and monitoring platforms | We provide geo-diversified network operations centers, trained personnel and scaled, carrier-integrated management platforms with options for both shared and dedicated engineering resources |
