SD-WAN, NFV, and virtual enterprise premises equipment (vE-CPE) not only provide CapEX and OpEX savings by replacing multiple special-purpose devices with a single white-box device, but also greatly improve operational flexibility through new and scalable services. Service deployment cycles can be reduced from months to hours, encouraging communications service providers (CSPs) and enterprises to implement these technologies faster and gain a competitive advantage, as well as realize quicker operational benefits.
While legacy networking solutions, and many enterprise SD-WAN offerings, consist of highly integrated hardware and software from a single vendor, NFV-based SD-WAN enables a logical and flexible separation of hardware and software. Vertical silos with technology vendors are transformed into a horizontal "mix-and-match" approach that Advantech and Versa are embracing.
Versa's NFV-based SD-WAN and SD-Security solution enables service providers and large enterprises to deliver a comprehensive and cost-effective SD-WAN that includes advanced connectivity and security features.
Built on Versa's virtualized network and security capabilities, along with low-cost hardware, the Versa SD-WAN solution includes key managed service capabilities such as multi-tenancy, multi-services, elasticity, and zero-touch provisioning to maximize service agility and reduce capital and operating costs.
