Amdocs has developed an SD-WAN package that is pre-integrated with Versa SD-WAN and Fortinet security services. The package provides a ready-to-deploy orchestration solution that allows service providers to accelerate their managed SD-WAN offerings bundled with value-added services. It utilizes multi-domain network functions virtualization orchestration to automate service fulfillment across customer networks, data centers, and the cloud. This helps service providers optimize operations, improve the customer experience through self-service capabilities, and accelerate time to market for new services.

4. The SD-WAN opportunity for CSPs
Most successful application of
software-defined networking, SD-WAN balances cost
benefits of internet with performance of MPLS and
agility of cloud
5. The SD-WAN opportunity for CSPs
Managed SD-WAN services protect and grow existing
MPLS revenues, especially in combination with value-
added services
6. The SD-WAN opportunity for CSPs
Most SD-WAN vendors are not traditional security
vendors. CSPs need to offer best of breed security
solutions on top of SD-WAN connectivity.
7. The SD-WAN opportunity for CSPs
Barriers to CSP adoption of SD-WAN are low but they
need to consider substantial changes to WAN service
topologies, management and provisioning tools, and
support processes
