Central to the networking revolution is software-defined networking, which allows network administrators to virtualize their networking hardware and bring added agility and cost savings.
Although Network Services of all types can benefit from SDN, one area ripe for adoption is the wide area network. CT Cloud Boost can enable businesses to harness virtualization and reap the benefits not only of improved agility and cost, but also other massive benefits and savings. Companies like CallTower are pushing forward with CT Cloud Boost technology and giving businesses an easy adoption path.
Here are four reasons why CT Cloud Boost is the future of communication:
CT Cloud Boost gives organizations true transport independence. Since the WAN is virtualized, it can take advantage of any transport protocol that is needed. This includes 3G, 4G LTE, MPLS, Internet, Ethernet, Serial or Wi-Fi. Total transport flexibility gives your organization the ability to adapt to any number of technical requirements and save money when making the change.
Unlike traditional WAN solutions, which handle security through multiple appliances at each branch office, CT Cloud Boost can include all of these functions in-box and at lower cost. CT Cloud Boost can integrate with a cloud web content filtering service, too, and offer malware defenses and botnet command-and-control intervention for every branch and remote devices. You can rest at ease knowing your data is safe and sound under the CT Cloud Boost umbrella.
One of the most important advantages of CT Cloud Boost is that it can provide intelligent path control that steers traffic based on application. This traffic-forwarding capability can be set in place at the centralized controller level and then pushed out to all CT Cloud Boost devices. Policies can be based on IP addresses, application profiles, port number, quality-of-service markings, time of day, or any other number of variables. Giving your network this level of traffic freedom means that outages and throttling will reduced dramatically.
Deploying WAN systems is so last year. CT Cloud Boost enables businesses to send CT Cloud Boost devices to branches un-configured. The device then can download its policy, crypto certificate and keys and automatically start to learn traffic patterns. Provisioning is dramatically easier with CT Cloud Boost.
These are just some of the benefits of CT Cloud Boost, but there are many more. Virtualization is a revolutionary technology, and WAN networking is no exception.
