SD-WAN and Network Transformation

Software-defined wide area networking (SD-WAN) has asserted itself as a significant player in network transformation. Shamus McGillicuddy, Vice President at Enterprise Management Associates (EMA) and Mike Lloyd, Chief Portfolio Officer at Globalinternet explore this further in this podcast. In particular, Mike outlines the role of internet in an SD-WAN-driven network transformation. He also lends his expertise on the challenges companies may encounter when sourcing such internet underlay to better enable SD-WAN implementations, as well as how to build resiliency into a hybrid underlay. Finally, Mike shares the signs that indicate when an enterprise should consider outsourcing ISP management.
