Wide area networks are an essential communication tool in modern day businesses.\u00a0 Since it is one of the areas of high operational cost, a WAN should be designed carefully, so that costs and efficiency are optimized.\u00a0 Since there are many competing technologies, choosing the appropriate WAN solution is imperative.<\/p>\n
Many businesses opt for dedicated MPLS lines to connect each WAN node.\u00a0 One of the main advantages is that MPLS lines offer excellent connectivity and quality, but the downside is that it is expensive.\u00a0 To reduce costs, using IP based VPN [Virtual Private Networks] over inexpensive broadband connections is a good option.<\/p>\n
Acknowledging the strategic importance of WAN connectivity to a business, care and thought should be put into its design.\u00a0 An area that should never be neglected is being prepared for a WAN connection to fail.\u00a0\u00a0 If connectivity is lost, it could mean significant lost revenue and severe disruption to business processes.\u00a0\u00a0 The loss of customers and goodwill may never be recovered.\u00a0 The business may even fold in such circumstances.\u00a0 WAN redundancy should be a part of the design factors.<\/p>\n
FatPipe technology was designed in such events and could mean the difference between a major problem and a mere blip in business operations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
