Don’t deal with the logistical nightmare of complicated network rollouts. Connect In Cloud uses automation to get record deployment times. For example, we set up 640 sites for a major retailer in just over 5 hours.
Our partnership is still going strong after the launch. We make sure that our service is always reliable by keeping an eye on it 24/7, doing proactive maintenance, and optimising it all the time.
Connect In Cloud's one-of-a-kind API deployment and orchestration method automates network deployment, which means you can get to your networking "destinations" faster and for less money. We helped a big store set up SD-WAN at 640 locations in just over five hours! We set up more than 3,000 wireless access points, 100 cellular gateways, 944 switches, and 700 Meraki MX security and SD-WAN devices.
We will keep an eye on the status, performance, and health of your SD-WAN solution and fix any problems or incidents that come up before they happen. Connect In Cloud stops security threats and fixes problems as soon as they happen. We also make sure that your environment is always up to date with the newest releases, so it is always in line with your changing business, application, and security needs.
Connect In Cloud will make detailed plans for both overlay and underlay services. These plans will include how to switch from your current solutions and how to work with them. Once the design is done, we will move your users and locations and handle the whole deployment.
SD-WAN (Software-Defined Wide Area Network) is a way to manage a network that uses software to control how data centers, remote branches, and cloud instances connect, manage, and provide services to each other.
SD-WAN makes it easier to manage and run a WAN by separating the hardware from the control mechanism. In the end, SD-WAN improves performance, cuts costs, and gives you more options by letting you choose the best path and controlling all network traffic from one place.
Legacy WAN connections are hard to maintain, expensive, slow, and hard to change, which stops growth and innovation. SD-WAN is the answer. It gives you control and lets you use the latest network technologies and easily manage services across a network with multiple sites.
At Focus Group, we'll help you figure out how to get to software-defined "everything" by connecting physical locations, public and private networks, and cloud environments. This will give your organization's infrastructure the most digital flexibility possible.
We know a lot about SD-WAN, including how to control traffic and keep it safe, how to optimise and route traffic dynamically, how to balance loads and prioritise traffic, how to connect branches and the cloud securely, how to automate and orchestrate, how to monitor the end-user experience, and how to virtualise security.
SD-WAN allows companies to build higher-performance WANs using lower-cost and commercially available internet access. It enables businesses to partially or wholly replace more expensive, private WAN connection technologies such as MPLS.
Cisco SD-WAN is a highly secure, cloud-scale architecture that is open, programmable and scalable, with integrated capabilities for multi-cloud, security, unified communications and application optimisation – built on a SASE foundation. It’s used to connect data centres, branches, campuses and colocation facilities to improve network speed, security and efficiency.
The main difference between a software-defined network (SDN) and SD-WAN is how they are used. While SDNs address the modern networking needs of managing local area networks (LANs) or operator-managed networks, SD-WANs are used to connect geographically distributed locations and remote users.
SD-WAN has proven to be a flexible, robust and reliable alternative to traditional private network connections. A Cisco SD-WAN doesn't require a backhaul to a data centre, which allows branch offices to connect more easily to the internet. This translates into better performance, lower latency and higher-performing connectivity. In addition to this, business IT support services will constantly monitor for faults in the network, rectifying any issues before they occur.
SD-WAN and VPN both provide secure connections, but SD-WAN offers more advanced features. SD-WAN uses software-defined technology for dynamic path selection, centralised management, and enhanced performance across multiple locations. It optimises traffic and reduces latency. In contrast, VPNs primarily create secure point-to-point connections over the internet without the advanced traffic management and optimisation capabilities an SD-WAN provides.
Unlike traditional router-centric WAN architectures, SD-WAN is designed to fully support applications hosted in on-premises data centres, public or private clouds and SaaS services such as Salesforce.com and Microsoft 365. In a nutshell, SD-WAN delivers the highest levels of application performance and better quality of experience for users. Plus, organisations can instantly deploy the right security in the right place, all from a single dashboard, protecting end users from a multitude of security threats, while safeguarding the business against data exfiltration and insider threats.
SD-WAN architecture lets businesses use any combination of services, such as MPLS, LTE, and broadband internet, to safely connect users to applications. The technology centralises network control and makes a network overlay that lets IT set up, manage, monitor, and secure most parts of the WAN from a distance, including edge devices and traffic flows.
SD-WAN optimises and manages network traffic, while a firewall protects against cyber threats by watching and controlling incoming and outgoing network traffic based on security rules. Combining a firewall with SD-WAN makes sure that security is complete by combining optimised performance with strong threat protection and compliance.
