Running an agile, hybrid global Wide Area Network (WAN) that supports your organization’s growth can place great pressure on your day to day operations. Innovation that leverages digital, cloud and IoT has a significant impact on IT costs, performance, security and most importantly, your precious time.

You’re already spinning enough plates without needing to complete all the tasks associated with adding network connectivity to yet another branch office through yet another ISP on the other side of the country or globe.

You can’t make your ISP work any faster, and you can’t afford to make the plane journey to get to that location since the network team really can’t be everywhere and do everything at once. Or can it?

Managed SD-WAN from Teneo helps you to leverage our enterprise-grade Internet access services, simplify and scale your global WAN management and saves you great amounts of time and money in the process.

You get to centralize your WAN operations – and run them from your favorite chair – while you streamline connectivity providers, increase network agility, reliability and security, and reduce costs. We provide you with one contract, one invoice and we manage everything through one team.

WHAT IS MANAGED SD-WAN?

Managed SD-WAN leverages Teneo people and technology to make use of all hybrid

connections you have available on the WAN at any one time, constantly monitoring them to automatically choose the best possible path available for the type of traffic that’s crossing your network and the business priorities you set.

Those connections can include your redundant – but very expensive – backup lines. You’ve already paid for them so why not use them?

And then there’s Internet access, which you can now start to leverage at a more cost effective rate than MPLS as part of our Connectivity as a Service. In over 200 countries, we offer a portfolio of Internet Access services using all available access technologies at a range of speeds and SLA’s so you can right-size your Managed SD-WAN solution. We’ll provide you with static IP addresses, onsite installation and Ethernet handoff.

Once we’ve helped you to set up your global Internet connectivity, we’ll get you set up with the rules that govern your traffic priorities and our Managed SD-WAN service will take care of the rest so you can use your time for some of those other plate-spinning tasks.

This approach makes your network much more flexible, allowing it to live and breathe, reacting to network conditions in real time without the intervention of a network team member.

WHERE DOES MANAGED SD-WAN APPLY?

If you’re running global locations that frequently suffer outages that impact productivity, Managed SD-WAN could save you some extra time in bed and ensure your organization runs at full speed, day and

night. If you need to be fast to market with new global office locations, we make that process run smoothly and quickly with Managed SD-WAN. And if you’re about to increase spend on MPLS or look for a new MPLS provider or ISP to accommodate bandwidth growth, we’d recommend our Managed SD-WAN approach with Connectivity as a Service as a much better alternative. Here are the benefits of Managed SD-WAN in more detail.

CONNECTIVITY• Get fully project-managed, 24x7 Connectivity as a

Service with a range of available access technologies, speeds and SLA’s to suit your needs. All Internet comes with RJ45 Ethernet handoff and static IP.

• Stop worrying about details like sourcing the right Internet Access service from the best provider in each country, and managing key features like web security, latency optimization and local Internet breakout.

• Get the right service, at the right price, at the right quality, at the right time with centralized procurement, invoicing, technical standardization, performance monitoring and fault resolution.

AGILITY• Respond quickly to the needs of your

organization with application-defined, business intent-based policies that are centrally managed and applied network-wide.

• Extend your management capabilities to ensure your network lights are always on, 24×7.

• Deploy network connectivity to new sites easily and quickly.

RELIABILITY• Create a highly available WAN architecture

that virtualizes, dynamically leverages and fails over to multiple links at remote locations.

• Retain end-to-end visibility of network performance and end-user experience for troubleshooting and problem resolution.

REDUCED COSTS• Connectivity as a Service helps to control the

combination of best connections and lower cost or redundant paths for more cost-effective connectivity, allowing you to operate a fully hybrid WAN.

• Better leverage hybrid architectures - on premises, private cloud (e.g. VMware) and public cloud (e.g. AWS, Azure).

• Reduce deployment costs through centralized WAN management.

PERFORMANCE• Ensure all business critical applications are

prioritized and are available all of the time through dynamic native routing decisions that are made based on network behavior and resources.

• Leverage industry-leading WAN optimization and end-to-end unified visibility into application and network performance.

SECURITY• Leverage integrated Next-Generation Firewall

capabilities to ensure the secure delivery of all applications across your hybrid WAN.

• Securely identify and manage the performance of today’s modern and encrypted applications running over SSL, TLS and HTTPS.

• Easily leverage unified security views and app- and user-based security policies.

GETTING STARTEDYou’ll more than likely have an existing global WAN infrastructure, or brownfield deployment, so we’ll need to work with you around your legacy technology.

To help you navigate the complexities and ensure we prescribe the right Managed SD-WAN and connectivity offerings for you, we’ll take you through a One Day SD-WAN Workshop. Through the workshop, we’ll help you explore some of the dependencies, conflicts and security challenges that exist in your network today. We’ll also work with you to understand your existing connectivity network, infrastructure and how your applications, both on premises and SaaS, are being used.

Where you need further help with assessment, we can support you with our Professional Services, designed specifically for SD-WAN Migration.

DATA SHEET

We’ve been working with SD-WAN technology since 2011, long before Gartner gave the SD-WAN category its name.

The head start we’ve therefore gained in the market has given us hands-on technical experience, a good understanding of deployment environments, an independent view on SD-WAN offerings and of course has resulted in a base of Teneo SD-WAN customers.

For example, we’ve helped a pharmaceutical organization that was plagued by variable bandwidth worldwide to implement SD-WAN to route data more intelligently over their WAN. They’ve reported network resilience and clean data, no dropped packets for any VoIP/video applications, removal of jitter and a 25% network efficiency uplift.

We’ve also helped a global law firm to eradicate keyboard stroke ghosting in their virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) solution running over the WAN and remove latency in its video and case management applications by implementing intelligent SD-WAN features. It achieved effective thin client computing worldwide, better video calls and team collaborations, and optimum case billing.

We’ll be your own dedicated Managed SD-WAN with Connectivity as a Service team, available 24 hours a day and highly trained and experienced in all aspects of SD-WAN.
