- Managed on-ramp to the cloud: Direct cloud access with performance, reliability, and security
VeloCloud™ SD-WAN Overview
VeloCloud™ SD-WAN, a fundamental component of VeloCloud SASE, offers converged cloud networking and security services to achieve flexibility, agility, and scale for enterprises of all sizes. VeloCloud SD-WAN is built on software-defined networking principles to address end-to-end automation, application continuity, branch transformation, and security from the edge to the data center and the cloud.
VeloCloud SD-WAN provides availability and quality-of-service for modern applications, while delivering security and ubiquity of access for the distributed workforce. VeloCloud SD-WAN and SASE, built on the VeloRAIN robust AI-networking architecture, are ideal for today's distributed enterprises embracing cloud, generative AI, and application transformation.
VeloCloud SD-WAN addresses the distinct needs of AI-based and non-AI-based applications, as it relates to performance, security, and scalability. As a cloud-delivered solution, VeloCloud SD-WAN ensures resilient WAN connectivity and allows users to have flexible WAN choices, such as broadband, MPLS, LTE, and satellite. VeloCloud SD-WAN offers high application performance and availability while lowering networking costs. It can detect the slightest degradations and dynamically remediate over one or multiple WAN links, resulting in a highly satisfied user experience. While most enterprises deploy SD-WAN hardware appliances at their branch locations, a software-based remote client is also available as an extension of VeloCloud SD-WAN. Moreover, Enhanced Firewall Service, based on proven VMware NSX security technology, is built into VeloCloud SD-WAN Edges, providing comprehensive security and eliminating the need for legacy firewalls at branch locations.
VeloCloud SD-WAN Components
VeloCloud SD-WAN Edge
Edge is an enterprise-class appliance providing secure and optimized connectivity to applications anywhere, on and off the cloud. It is zero-touch provisioned for secure and optimized connectivity to applications.
Edge is available in various form factors: hardware, software (VMs), downloadable from cloud marketplaces, or virtual network functions (VNF), with hardware appliances most widely deployed at customer branch sites.
