What Is SD-WAN?

SD-WAN is a software-defined approach to managing the WAN. Key advantages include:

  • Reducing costs with transport independence across MPLS, 4G/5G LTE, and other connection types.

  • Improving application performance and increasing agility.

  • Optimising user experience and efficiency for software-as-a-service (SaaS) and public-cloud applications.

  • Simplifying operations with automation and cloud-based management.

Cinos’ SD-WAN Managed Services built on Cisco SD-WAN Solutions

Cinos offers SD-WAN managed services and solutions based upon underlying Cisco Meraki or Cisco Viptela technology.

The SD-WAN solution builds an overlay fabric which is carrier agnostic as well as transport agnostic. Customers get a consistent WAN built on any transport such as MPLS, Broadband, 4G/LTE, VSAT and more. The SD-WAN solution secures connectivity over all these transports to build a secure overlay network.

The solution is managed and deployed using a central cloud-based GUI. From this GUI new sites can be deployed, and policies can be created that dictate how traffic will flow across the WAN. The management portal also contains all the monitoring and performance tools required to troubleshoot and optimise the operation of the WAN.

Cisco SD-WAN Solutions at a glance

Consider Cisco SD-WAN (Viptela) for advanced routing and flexible deployment scenarios.

Consider Cisco SD-WAN (Meraki) for all-in-one SD-WAN and security solution for lean IT environments.

Viptela

Cisco SD-WAN powered by Viptela is a cloud-first architecture that separates data and control planes, managed through the Cisco vManage console. You can quickly establish an SD-WAN overlay fabric to connect data centres, branches, campuses, and colocation facilities to improve network speed, security, and efficiency.

Meraki

Cisco SD-WAN powered by Meraki delivers end-to-end visibility through advanced analytics with machine learning and smart path selection to assure experience for business-critical applications no matter where they are hosted—SaaS, IaaS, or the data centre.

SD-WAN Benefits

Both the Meraki and Viptela SD-WAN solutions provide the same key benefits:

  • Provides a secure overlay network that can connect remote sites together via the Internet.

  • Provides local Internet break out for optimised access to cloud services such as Office 365.

  • Reduces the cost of the WAN compared to MPLS.

  • Can be deployed in Public Clouds such as Azure and AWS to connect cloud locations to WAN.

  • Allows for dynamic path selection based on traffic types so that all network links are efficiently used.

  • Provides central deployment, management and monitoring features via a cloud management portal.

Cinos offers an end-to-end managed solution by providing the tail end circuits, SD-WAN solutions and a fully managed Service Level Agreement.
