User complaints about slow VPN access have been with us forever. Mobile users struggle to gain global access to business applications using legacy mobile VPN clients. Traditional VPN architectures are also incompatible with cloud datacenters in services, such asAmazon AWS and Microsoft Azure, and cloud applications, such as Office 365.
