Software-Defined WAN Summit

9 a.m. PDT/12 p.m. EDT, SD-WAN 101:
Understanding the Basics of SD-WAN
Demand for SD-WAN solutions is growing by leaps and bounds with some estimates calling for the percentage of enterprises implementing SD-WAN to roughly triple over the next few years. In this session, we dig into what all the fuss is about. Attend this session to find out:
  • The trends in enterprise computing driving the demand for SD-WAN.
  • The networking architecture and expenses that SD-WAN replaces.
  • What SD-WAN allows in terms of network and application management.
  • How SD-WAN works. * An overview of the different ways the technology can be implemented.
  • And more …

Don't miss this session to understand what SD-WAN can do for your organization.



10 a.m. PDT/1 p.m. EDT, SD-WAN 102:
Top SD-WAN Benefits and Architecture Considerations
No technology is for everyone, but the appeal of SD-WAN is pretty broad. Due to the technology's efficiencies and advantages, it has a wider appeal than traditional WAN technology did and its software-defined flexibility starts to deliver functionality traditionally offered in adjacent technology areas. In this session, we'll help you determine:
  • How many branch offices you need for an SD-WAN to be cost effective.
  • How much organizations save by reducing their reliance on MPLS circuits via SD-WAN.
  • The types of application performance improvements that are possible with SD-WAN.
  • How to make cloud applications perform better using SD-WAN.
  • Best practices for deploying applications via SD-WANs.
  • How to improve security by using SD-WAN.
  • And much more …

After attending this session, you'll have a much better sense of how to deploy SD-WAN for maximum benefit in your organization.



11 a.m. PDT/2 p.m. EDT, SD-WAN 103:
The Role of SD-WAN in a Remote Work Era
A big part of the SD-WAN story is optimizing the branch office connection to corporate headquarters and cloud applications. But what happens when the branch office is removed from the equation? In this timely session, get an expert look at the role that SD-WAN infrastructure plays when all those branch office employees, and headquarters employees for that matter, are working from home. We'll look at:
  • Scalability considerations of SD-WAN architectures and solutions when nearly 100% of the employees are hitting the network from home offices.
  • The role the branch office plays in SD-WAN architecture during the pandemic.
  • SD-WAN architectural and equipment options for home-based workers during the pandemic.
  • How to future proof your investments and architectures around SD-WAN for post-pandemic situations.



Why Attend?

Software-defined wide-area networking (SD-WAN) is one of the fastest-growing SDx's out there. Attend this Virtualization & Cloud Review virtual summit to find out why that is and to find out what SD-WAN can do for your organization. Our independent industry experts will give you a high-level view of the basic benefits that SD-WAN delivers, and then will drill down into specific architectural considerations. They'll provide key insights that will help ensure your SD-WAN deployment delivers maximum value and performance and helps your organization cut unnecessary expenses.
