WAN-as-a-Service enables networks to respond to evolving IT needs





Traditional methods of building wide area networks (WANs) have always had limitations, but fell even further behind with the adoption of the cloud and remote work. Software-defined WANs (SD-WANs) have simplified many aspects of WAN management, but are unable to fully break away from the hub-and-spoke model due to security requirements. Modern WAN-as-a-Service offerings address these shortcomings while providing organizations cost savings and improving network performance.

  • The benefits and challenges of legacy WAN architectures and SD-WANs
  • Key features to look for in WAN-as-a-Service offerings
  • The advantages that WAN-as-a-Service provides over legacy architectures
