Small Brief on Next Generation SD-WAN
Dynamic business landscape and uncompromised demands of applications and users have driven dramatic transformation in IT Networking after many years of relative stability. Frequent changes in technologies are shifting networking from static Infrastructure to more agile, secured, future ready and hybrid-cloud infrastructure.

Infinxt Next Generation SD-WAN handles data and network security with in-built NGFW, SLA based Application Performance Enhancement, Traffic Shaping, Multi/ Hybrid Cloud App aware routing, in addition to the traditional SD-WAN features
