Traditional WAN architecture at the branch office is dead. The reason for its demise is that it sends all traffic to the data center, an inefficient and costly strategy in a time when business applications increasingly reside in the cloud and on the Internet. Hybrid WANs are the future.
Hybrid WANs support not only the traditional MPLS connection back to the data center, but additional connects such as a direct Internet connection. They can do this safely and efficiently by using technology such as automatic path selection, asymmetric optimization and policy-based control while also providing the necessary security.
The question is: "Which hybrid WAN vendor has the solution I need to transform my branch office's WAN connectivity?" I have assembled four leading WAN vendors who bring together great WAN optimization expertise, along with cutting-edge hybrid WAN solutions. Blue Cost, Cisco, Ipanema (now part of InfoVista) and Silver Peak are well-prepared to shed light on how their solutions meet the enterprise's WAN challenge. The Challenge document first explains the shift to hybrid WANs and then allows you to hear the vendors explain what their solutions can do to improve your branch office.
