Understanding the Basics of SD-WAN
Understanding the basics of SD-WAN allows teams to leverage the technology’s benefits. These include centralized control functionality, lower costs, and improved network connectivity.
SD-WAN enables secure connectivity between branches and corporate data centers. It can also improve application performance, reduce costs, and increase productivity. It eliminates the need to backhaul traffic to a central point for inspection, called a security service edge (SSE). It can also route traffic over lower-cost internet connections or cellular networks.
