ExtremeCloud SD-WAN
Network and security complexity are rapidly increasing. Legacy networks are straining to support today’s hybrid IT environments, a mix of on-premises, cloud, and SaaS technologies, as well as real-time, bandwidth-intense collaboration services and applications required by hybrid work. As organizations adapt to an unprecedented rate of change, IT teams are grappling with a lack of automation and integration between technologies, a lack of broad and deep visibility, widening skills shortages, and increasingly complex licensing.
SD-WAN offers connectivity, continuity, and cost benefits. However, as both network edges and the attack surface increase, SD-WAN also creates management, security, and visibility challenges.
ExtremeCloud SD-WAN is a flexible, secure solution that delivers the benefits of SD-WAN, while reducing risk, simplifying operations, and improving productivity with Unified Management, Fabric to the Edge, and best-in-class Application Performance Management packaged as a cost-effective OPEX subscription.
Application Performance and Management: Automated application discovery for more than 5,000 applications simplifies deployment. Enhanced performance control and visualization enables improved user experiences and productivity. Maintenance-free cloud on-ramps to AWS and Microsoft Azure enable secure, high-performance IaaS access
Fabric to the Edge: Seamless extension of Extreme Fabric services over low-cost internet access transport improves visibility, performance, and resilience at all branches. Extreme SD-WAN optimizes performance and security for tunneled Fabric traffic. Extreme Fabric enables zero-touch provisioning of Extreme Wi-Fi APs and Ethernet switches at branch locations. Fabric hypersegmentation enables secure connectivity, simplified compliance, and improved attack resistance against lateral threats.
Unified Management: Reduced complexity with a holistic management experience provided by ExtremeCloud SD-WAN and ExtremeCloud IQ. Centralized configuration and management of Wi-Fi access points, Ethernet switches, and SD-WAN devices. LAN-to-WAN-to-Cloud performance monitoring powered by AIOPs, contextual telemetry, and granular network and application performance visibility across users, devices, sites, links, and locations enables rapid troubleshooting.
What is SD-WAN and Why Is it Important?
What is SD-WAN?: A software-defined wide area network leverages low-cost, flexible internet access transport to connect multiple locations securely and to the cloud. SD-WAN delivers good performance for a lower cost than other technologies, improves site resilience, and simplifies cloud connectivity.
Why Choose SD-WAN From Extreme Networks?: Fabric to the Edge, advanced application performance management, and unified management of wired, wireless, IoT, and SD-WAN devices enable organizations to reduce risk, simplify operations, and improve productivity.
How Does SD-WAN Link Business and Network Transformation?: ExtremeCloud SD-WAN turns the WAN into a strategic business asset by enabling digital transformation scaling, operational excellence, increased agility, and other critical business outcomes.
What Makes ExtremeCloud SD-WAN Different?
ExtremeCloud SD-WAN is pre-integrated with Fabric to extend services securely across all of a customer’s sites. It comes with granular application performance management and visibility to better understand end-user experience and it features intuitive user interfaces as part of a unified wired and wireless management solution.
Assured Business Continuity and Resilience
As organizations continue to lead through uncertainty, no organization can afford unplanned downtime. ExtremeCloud SD-WAN’s application steering, sub-second failover, and high availability options improve uptime. Built-in WAN security and advanced internet access security options protect the network from cyber-attacks.
Increased Operational Efficiency
Accelerating and optimizing business processes is critical to achieving key results. ExtremeCloud SD-WAN’s cloud-native orchestrator with automated workflows, application discovery, and maintenance-free cloud on-ramps to AWS and Azure simplify operations with streamlined visibility, security, and performance.
Improved Productivity and User Experience
Delivering consistent, high-quality user experience from cloud and data centers to branches is a challenge. Extreme’s application performance management capabilities improve user experience for the entire network with granular SaaS and private applications visibility and real-time, continuously automated application performance control.
Controlled Costs and Purchase Risks
Cost and risk are top of mind for many IT leaders and senior management. Detailed performance reporting enables cost optimization and network refinement. Inclusive subscription pricing with flexible terms reduces purchase risk and improves financial efficiency.
