Increased demands

Increased demands on the cloud
edge call for new solutions

Legacy WAN architectures that are not automated and are complex to manage hinder the ability to adopt new technology to access cloud applications.

In this situation, migrating to faster connectivity or adding new services or cloud applications could increase costs, compromise security, and increase downtime.

Plus a lack of visibility when consuming applications over the internet can negatively impact the user experience and decrease productivity for a distributed workforce.
