Catch Up with Rising Intelligence on the WAN Edge
WAN Edge refers to the device deployed at the “edge of the network,” especially at the branches. Till a few years back, these devices were expected to make routing decisions without human intervention, but with the advent of SD-WAN, the Edge devices are gaining much-needed intelligence and also are capable of performing multiple functions. Imagine effortlessly managing your WAN, elevating its performance, fortifying the security, and seamlessly integrating new heterogeneous connections of different technologies – all in one powerful suite of solutions. FatPipe Networks, the inventor and multiple patents holder of SDWAN technology has been at the forefront of making the “Edge” more powerful and intelligent to exponentially enhance the network performance. It provides unique patented technology MPSEC TM to the networking industry which has given a new dimension to Edge Intelligence. It also provides solutions for improving network performance in an existing WAN, simplifying WAN management, or adding and managing additional connections with zero-touch provisioning.
WAN Redundancy with MPSEC TM
FatPipe Multi path security patented technology allows multiple heterogeneous connections to the WAN for seamless aggregation of MPLS, Internet, 4G, leased networks, and satellite networks in one single virtual link with seamless sub-second failover to enhance network SLAs.
Dynamic load balancing on multiple lines
FatPipe’s dynamic load balancing allows the load to be distributed on a WAN connection according to several algorithms ranging from simple round-robin load balancing to complex load balancing that determines the least number of hops from start to destination.
Multiple Quality of Service
FatPipe technology supports QoS mechanisms that let organizations prioritize specific traffic over others. This will ensure that VoIP calls have priority and the availability needed to be completed.
Data traffic Optimization
The Edge is enabled with multiple WAN Optimization techniques making it more intelligent. FatPipe data compression technology can compress data by up to 8x. FatPipe’s de-duplication technology looks for data duplicates in data sets and eliminates them. By caching local copies of transmitted data, FatPipe technology reduces the strain on network resources.
Hybrid WAN
The Hybrid WAN has the public and private networks working in parallel. We can also have internet-only branches to connect to their HQ or other data centers using an on-site or cloud gateway.
Centralized control and Policy-based management
FatPipe SD-WAN ensures data security and decision-driven traffic routing through a centralized control function with additional benefits such as application performance, user satisfaction, business efficiency, and reduced operational expenditure. Based on policies, FatPipe manages the configurations and flow of traffic.
Dynamic path selection
FatPipe SD-WAN intelligently prioritizes data and diagnoses existing network conditions to effectively map application traffic to the best-suited route.
Last-mile connectivity
FatPipe SD-WAN devices deployed at each location elevate last-mile connectivity between sites without excessively relying on service partners, as with cloud-based solutions.
Fabric and Flat Networks
While fabric networks facilitate the seamless integration of many components, improve scalability, and enhance overall network performance, flat networks can reduce complexity in WAN environments with a simplified structure. Flat networks can improve data transfer efficiency, lower latency, and simplify management by minimizing the number of network layers.
Intelligent WAN Edge Consolidation
FatPipe Intelligent WAN Edge consolidation typically involves simplifying management processes, improving network performance, and adding or managing additional connections into a unified and intelligent solution. The objective is to provide a more cohesive and effective approach to managing and optimizing the WAN edge infrastructure.
