WAN Governance
Manage your enterprise WAN coherently, predictably and aligned with business needs.
The WAN is so critical to enterprise’s productivity that time has come to consider it from a business perspective, like other critical sectors of the organization.
Throwing more bandwidth and money at problems is no longer an appropriate approach in today’s world of business governance. Looking at the global enterprise network as a business enabler, rather than as a collection of technical objects, is one of the new challenges - and opportunities - faced by every IT department.
Ipanema’s WAN Governance empowers enterprises with capabilities to:
- Continuously assess their IT and network environments, clearly identify their needs and receive recommendations for planning infrastructure
- Proactively grow a next generation application-aware network fully aligned with business goals
- Run a deterministic network that automatically adapts to changes and delivers optimal application performance
- Reduce hardware, software and telecommunications costs
- Plan and implement agile, cost-effective IT transformations
The ultimate goal of the IT function is to make business processes and workforces more efficient - to maximize their business value. WAN Governance creates the visibility and control of enterprise applications and usage to achieve this ultimate goal.
WAN Governance starts with the definition of global performance objectives. These objectives feed a system which implements application visibility, QoS and control, WAN optimization and dynamic WAN selection that automatically match application and user demand with available network resources and performance. WAN Governance extends application performance management and permits a continuous service level management through clear Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).
