EGUIDE:
So much has been up in the air in the wake of the onset of Covid-19 and the lockdowns and stay-at-home orders issued by various governments around the world. But there has been one thing that is pretty fixed: the rise and rise of software-defined wide area networks (SD-WANs).
EGUIDE:
One of the key technology trends of the last five years, if not longer, has been the migration from networks based on multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) to the more agile and affordable alternative, wide-area networking (WAN) technologies and in particular software-defined (SD-WAN).
ANALYST REPORT:
Forrester recently spoke with multiple Palo Alto Networks customers regarding their investment in CloudGenix SD-WAN as part of a Total Economic Impact (TEI) study. Download this Forrester report to see the various benefits customers’ saw when migrating away from MPLS to Palo Alto Networks CloudGenix SD-WAN.
RESOURCE:
There’s a glow on the upsides of SD-WAN, but there’s also a “dark side” that must be considered. Companies looking to SD-WAN to replace traditional MPLS have to learn how to design the middle and last miles of their SD-WAN to run reliably and with high availability. View this Cato Networks guide to learn how it’s done.
EGUIDE:
SD-WAN has been linked to security from its inception, but what if you could go one step further? What if there were ironclad ways to manage threats, trust, visibility and orchestration to give your organization an added layer of security through SD-WAN? In this handbook, read more about piecing together SD-WAN and security.
EGUIDE:
Don't transition from MPLS to SD-WAN deployment without a migration plan. Follow these 4 steps as a guideline to avoid MPLS contract disasters, unexpected costs and delayed installation.
EZINE:
In this special edition of Network Evolution, we explore how network managers can use emerging WAN technologies -- including software-defined WAN, cloud networking and next-generation firewalls -- to create networks that keep pace with enterprise needs without breaking the bank.

How does VoIP quality measure up to 20th century standards? In this issue of Network Evolution, we look at what's driving VoIP networking development, and what users expect when it comes to voice and video quality.
EGUIDE:
Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) is a cloud-based platform that provides networking capabilities and security functionality directly to endpoints that connect to the platform. In this guide, explore how the limitations of traditional networking led the industry to SASE.
EGUIDE:
Take a closer look at the benefits and challenges of an SDN-WAN and network function virtualization (NFV) deployment. Additionally, this guide illustrates SDN's new security methodologies, which are reshaping mobile security today.
