Business critical applications Important question to ask: where are your business critical applications located — in an in-house data center or in the cloud? As a result, networks need to adapt to the new requirements of the increased use of cloud applications. And here is where SD-WAN steps in.

While SD-WANs are a valuable first step towards evolving the wide area network , they only address a small part of the dissolved enterprise perimeter challenge. With information locked behind application silos, operational improvements, such as automation, becomes increasingly complex.

For CIOs, the focus is on operational issues such as network and application performance, uptime, and workflows. At the intersection of CIO and CISO issues and concerns is the network and its underlying infrastructure. For CISOs, the stress is about malware, access control, and data exfiltration.

Software-Defined Wide Area Networks (SD-WANs) promised to address the high costs, rigidity and limitations of private MPLS services. As managed services, MPLS services are backed with service level agreements (SLAs) governing downtime, latency, packet loss, time to repair, and more. SD-WANs automate these and other steps.

Weve been discussing the impact the dissolving perimeter has had on networking and IT. The Internet Limits Peak Performance Applications remain constrained by Internet performance. The brownouts and unpredictability of Internet connections will continue to disrupt applications. And wed like our networks to be inherently secure.

With MPLS revenue streams at risk, the carriers are pursuing a two-prong strategy: augmenting MPLS with Software-Defined Wide Area Networking (SD-WAN) and adding value-add services to the core network with Network Function Virtualization (NFV). We call this the Network Function Cloudification (NFCL) fabric.
