The main
questions
you should
be asking
How to ensure
you get the
most from your
investment
Will your next WAN be an SD-WAN?
![Page 3: Is SD-WAN Over-hyped? · 2019-04-11 · SD-WAN use cases •Aggressively moving apps to the cloud - O365, G Suite •Moving to Hybrid and deploying Internet to the branch •Seeking](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042222/5ec8dc7714ea260bfd794dfa/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Leading SD WAN services should give you the following when architected and deployed correctly
• An orchestration layer preferably delivered “as a service”
• Efficient, dynamic, intelligent and policy based load sharing across multiple links
• Simplified WAN configuration and management – “zero touch provisioning”
• Easily create VPNs and insert or “service chain” additional services – firewalls, cloud proxies, WAN optimisation, etc
• Secure, localised Internet breakout, optimised path to IaaS/SaaS – O365, SF, etc

![Page 5: Is SD-WAN Over-hyped? · 2019-04-11 · SD-WAN use cases •Aggressively moving apps to the cloud - O365, G Suite •Moving to Hybrid and deploying Internet to the branch •Seeking](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042222/5ec8dc7714ea260bfd794dfa/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Is Internet killing MPLS?
![Page 6: Is SD-WAN Over-hyped? · 2019-04-11 · SD-WAN use cases •Aggressively moving apps to the cloud - O365, G Suite •Moving to Hybrid and deploying Internet to the branch •Seeking](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042222/5ec8dc7714ea260bfd794dfa/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The simple answer is…
No… it offers increased capability but doesn't necessarily provide an immediate reduction to MPLS
![Page 7: Is SD-WAN Over-hyped? · 2019-04-11 · SD-WAN use cases •Aggressively moving apps to the cloud - O365, G Suite •Moving to Hybrid and deploying Internet to the branch •Seeking](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042222/5ec8dc7714ea260bfd794dfa/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Why do we need more Internet?
• Branch staff application use that is moving to public cloud
• Localised and optimised internet services at branch level globally
• Rich media – e.g. You Tube
• Cloud Platforms
![Page 8: Is SD-WAN Over-hyped? · 2019-04-11 · SD-WAN use cases •Aggressively moving apps to the cloud - O365, G Suite •Moving to Hybrid and deploying Internet to the branch •Seeking](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042222/5ec8dc7714ea260bfd794dfa/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Why do we still use MPLS?
• Hybrid needs
• Mission critical latency sensitive applications
• Need for consistent, high quality bandwidth
• Availability of robust alternatives
• SLAs
• Aversion/cultural considerations
![Page 9: Is SD-WAN Over-hyped? · 2019-04-11 · SD-WAN use cases •Aggressively moving apps to the cloud - O365, G Suite •Moving to Hybrid and deploying Internet to the branch •Seeking](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042222/5ec8dc7714ea260bfd794dfa/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Food for thought…..
Non-critical vs critical applications
Hybrid design is key – balanced topology
Site resilience and SLAs
Compliment or replace
More bandwidth not more control
Internet need is growing – MPLS isn’t always falling……now
Copper rip and fibre replace

Can SD-WAN save me money?

The simple answer is…
…probably,
but maybe not right away
![Page 12: Is SD-WAN Over-hyped? · 2019-04-11 · SD-WAN use cases •Aggressively moving apps to the cloud - O365, G Suite •Moving to Hybrid and deploying Internet to the branch •Seeking](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042222/5ec8dc7714ea260bfd794dfa/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Network costs and saving opportunities
Internet/MPLS services vary wildly in price, performance and availability across geographies
Savings are specific to each organisation, it’s locations, applications and user types and associated availability and performance requirements
20%
80%
Only 20% of enterprises that have adopted SD-WAN have completely replaced MPLS

Where can SD-WAN save money?
![Page 14: Is SD-WAN Over-hyped? · 2019-04-11 · SD-WAN use cases •Aggressively moving apps to the cloud - O365, G Suite •Moving to Hybrid and deploying Internet to the branch •Seeking](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042222/5ec8dc7714ea260bfd794dfa/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Food for thought…
Shifting budget towards internet connectivity over MPLS – will it actually save money?
Reducing what you spend today on your network v cost per Mb – topology driven
Its not just a bandwidth discussion
General savings claims rarely stack up – its all about you
Don’t expect an immediate ROI

What are the security implications of SD-WAN?
![Page 16: Is SD-WAN Over-hyped? · 2019-04-11 · SD-WAN use cases •Aggressively moving apps to the cloud - O365, G Suite •Moving to Hybrid and deploying Internet to the branch •Seeking](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042222/5ec8dc7714ea260bfd794dfa/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
The simple answer is…
…it means you need to look at your security in a different way to traditional routing
![Page 17: Is SD-WAN Over-hyped? · 2019-04-11 · SD-WAN use cases •Aggressively moving apps to the cloud - O365, G Suite •Moving to Hybrid and deploying Internet to the branch •Seeking](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042222/5ec8dc7714ea260bfd794dfa/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Using embedded security functionality within SD-WAN products
Using separate products for SD-WAN and security at the branch
Using embedded SD-WAN functionality within security products
Using SD-WAN with a cloud-based security solution, such as Zscaler
Requirements at the edgeTypically less complex than in the data centre

The simple answer is…
…that it all depends on you and your resource capability

SD-WAN use cases
• Aggressively moving apps to the cloud - O365, G Suite
• Moving to Hybrid and deploying Internet to the branch
• Seeking to reduce traditional business-class carrier budgets
• Want to reduce complexity of WAN configuration
• Typically large number of branches (25+)
• Aggressively deploying video or other public high bandwidth apps
• Maintaining limited or no IT staff at the branch

Summary risks
40 vendors some have overhyped their capabilities, using confusing language and claims
How to cope with traffic spikes and unforeseen traffic mixes
Its all in your use case not the vendors – discuss in detail
Beware the limitations –consolidated network functions may need to offload this functionality when moving to light weight SDWAN CPE – voice!
Market claims – what value does the feature actually deliver, don’t assume name
Vendor lock in as technology based on controllers – no vendor to vendor controller integration today
