In digital era, the network needs of enterprises have become increasingly complex, and SD-WAN (Software-Defined Wide Area Network) has become a powerful tool for many enterprises to solve network challenges.

SD-WAN has a wide range of application scenarios and meets the needs of different enterprises. This article will introduce you the six major application scenarios of SD-WAN to help you choose the solution that is most suitable for your business.

1. Low-cost Internet+4G networking

In order to save labor costs, many large companies set up call centers in fourth- and fifth-tier cities. The business needs to quickly establish a call network to prevent competitors from providing services first. Building a data center or renting a data center is time-consuming and expensive.

SD-WAN loads the Internet deployment mode very quickly and has optimized software modules to improve Internet performance and ensure efficient output. In addition, SD-WAN is a plug-and-play product that requires no complex deployment or parameter adjustment and can be deployed within a few hours.

2. High availability of existing resources

Many enterprises have existing networks and Internet connections, but do not want to change suppliers because changing lines is complicated and costly.

SD-WAN can make full use of existing resources and bind multiple lines into a highly available logical bandwidth resource pool to improve overall performance.

3. Cloud migration

When enterprises connect to clouds or multiple clouds or across clouds from the data center, or upload data and applications from the data center or cloud A to cloud B on different clouds, they need high-performance network support to ensure uninterrupted business.

SD-WAN is deployed quickly, and enterprises have control, enabling real-time data migration while ensuring business continuity and avoiding complex processes and discussions.

4. International networking

In the process of internationalization, enterprises need to quickly implement global networking. It takes a long time to establish dedicated lines internationally.

Global SD-WAN can achieve multi-location connections in a short time, accelerate market occupation, and ensure the security and reliability of the network.

5. Cloud node networking and dynamic acceleration

When enterprises use overseas cloud services, SD-WAN can solve the problem of dedicated line access with cloud service providers and simplify the networking process.

6. Dynamic data acceleration

SD-WAN accelerates real-time data such as audio and video conferencing and online transactions through technologies such as direct return to the original site, which can meet the needs of simultaneous networking and dynamic acceleration.

To sum up, SD-WAN is suitable for a variety of scenarios, including low-cost networking, optimization of existing resources, cloud migration, international networking, cloud node networking, and dynamic data acceleration. Choosing an SD-WAN solution that suits your business needs will improve network performance, reduce costs, accelerate digital transformation, and help your business thrive.
