Access Service Overlay Portfolio – Connect SD-WAN.
Software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) for business: transforming connectivity and performance.
In the rapidly evolving landscape of business technology, agility, efficiency, and robust connectivity are paramount. This is where Software-Defined Wide Area Network (SD-WAN) emerges as a transformative solution for businesses seeking to optimise their network infrastructure. SD-WAN is a technology that simplifies the management and operation of a wide area network by decoupling the networking hardware from its control mechanism.
Connect‘s Global network underlay infrastructure provides you with choice, security and performance coupled with the market leading SD-WAN technology from Juniper Networks utilising their Session Smart Routing, MIST control plane with insightful reporting and AI driven operational efficiency.
Connect’s global network services.
Connect operates a high-speed network with Global reach both directly and indirectly with over 500 service provider relationships globally connecting your business with the right technology, SLA backed service and agility to shape our service to fit your need.
Overlay Service – SDWAN.
Connect have selected SD-WAN from Juniper Networks to deliver resilient WAN connectivity with breakthrough economics to today’s cloud-centric businesses.
Our SD-WAN solution eliminates the inherent inefficiencies and cost constraints of legacy solutions by reducing bandwidth consumption by 30 percent or more, while not operating in a hub and spoke topology. It deliverers insights and automated troubleshooting for improved uptime, while improved visibility and AI automation drive operational efficiency.
We achieve this by doing things differently to traditional tunnel-based SD-WAN solutions. Our solution is designed to connect users with exceptional experiences. Built on an application-aware and zero-trust secure network fabric, it meets the most stringent enterprise performance, security, and availability requirements.
We overcome the inherent inefficiencies of conventional solutions with a tunnel-free, any-to-any architecture that enables improved performance, fast deployments, and cost savings. The solution can run on customer premises equipment (CPE), virtualisation platforms, and in the cloud for flexible deployments. It is centrally manageable using the AI-driven Juniper Mist cloud.
Key features of Connect’s SD-WAN for business solution:
- Application-aware routing
- Fail-safe service delivery
- Orchestration and automation
- Zero trust security
- Cloud managed with Mist
MIST AI by Connect.
MIST AI uses a combination of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and data science techniques to optimise user experiences and simplify operations across the wireless access, wired access, and SD-WAN domains.
Data is ingested from numerous sources, including Juniper Mist Access Points, Switches, Session Smart Routers, and Firewalls for end-to-end insight into user experiences. More than 170 user experience states of every device connected to the network are tracked every 60 seconds.
This data is analysed by cloud AI to automate repairs and where it can’t, provide valuable insight and reporting to provide automated event correlation, root cause identification, Self-Driving Network operations, network assurance, proactive anomaly detection, and more.
Connect have three SDWAN Architectures to complement our public and private access underlay services.
Connect operates a high-speed network with global reach both directly and indirectly with over 500 service provider relationships globally connecting your business with the right technology, SLA backed service and agility to shape our service to fit your need.
