Microsoft customers to benefit from SD-WAN for Azure

SD-WAN for Azure addresses connectivity issues for users of Microsoft Cloud based real time applications, such as Office 365.

FatPipe’s SD-WAN for Azure, an SD-WAN virtual machine enables Microsoft customers who use Office 365 and other cloud based applications by overcoming the need to reconnect every so often when the sessions break. This is especially important for customers and offices where large groups have to use Office 365 or other cloud-hosted applications, or when a single line connection to Azure is not adequate to address line drop issues.

Using FatPipe’s patented MPSec technology, multinational corporations, embassies and government agencies can use cloud-hosted applications knowing that their traffic is transmitted securely using FatPipe’s cryptographic module, FIPS 140-2, certified by NIST.

Delays and interruptions are reduced with FatPipe’s built in WAN optimization, reducing bandwidth needs and using FatPipe’s QoS gives priority to real time applications.

FatPipe for Azure provides real time Azure cloud offerings including Office 365, AI, Business Intelligence, Azure stream Analytics and Event Hubs where thousands of telemetry data have to be sent to the Azure Cloud. Using FatPipe for Azure, VoIP, video, data and VPN sessions are not dropped, but simply failover to other available lines.

A Global logistics company was looking to migrate real-time applications to Azure and improve performance for their Office 365 users. Using FatPipe’s SD-WAN for Azure, they made this migration securely and easily. “We have been a FatPipe partner for several years, providing connectivity for our customers. We are excited to deploy FatPipe SD-WAN in Azure as we execute on our cloud strategies with our customers” said Aneil Raghunanan, IT Project Manager.

Employees sent home due to carrier line outage

Recently a nationwide CenturyLink outage knocked out 911 voice calls, ATM withdrawals, and hospital patient records. Locally in Salt Lake City, a manufacturing business had to send their employees home costing tens of thousands of dollars in lost business.

Additionally, a major bank could not conduct business as usual as they could not access data or applications located in the Cloud or reach their branches. This is not an “unusual” occurrence. Line Outages are more common with the massive demand on carriers to provide more bandwidth and access to applications and data stored in cloud based centers across the country. Of course, if these businesses had multi-line secure, sub second failover technology installed, none of these disruptions would have occurred. FatPipe’s patented technology has proven itself time and again, most recently with a Chicago based town council, when bad weather caused their primary network to suffer an outage. With FatPipe’s solution, employees did not see any disruption whatsoever, unaware of the major outage. The council called FatPipe, not to register a support call, but to thank FatPipe for their solution that worked flawlessly. Modern networks are more crucial than ever before, especially for mission critical information such as that found in healthcare, financial and local government institutions. FatPipe pioneered technology to keep networks up using any link type, including LTE, 3G,4G,5G, fiber, leased, satellite, DSL, cable, wireless, and Internet.
