What's SD-WAN

SD-WAN, or Software-Defined Wide Area Network, is a technology that makes business networks smarter and more efficient. It simplifies how companies connect different locations, like branch offices or data centers, by using software to control and optimize the network traffic.

SD-WAN helps improve network performance, reliability, and security, making it easier for businesses to access their applications and data from anywhere. It acts like a smart traffic controller for your network, ensuring that data flows smoothly and securely between different locations.
