WAN Governance
Guaranteeing Business Application Performance
The WAN is so critical to enterprise productivity that it must be considered from a business perspective, like other critical sectors of the organization.
Throwing more bandwidth and money at problems is not 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 faced by IT managers.
WAN Governance addresses three fundamental issues IT managers have to solve:
- How to guarantee application performance in every circumstance, including cloud applications, distributed and mobile workforces and increasing usage of social media and recreational applications?
- How to get full visibility over the global network, discover applications and understand the causes of application brownouts?
- How to control and reduce the cost of application delivery over the WAN, maximizing the usage of the available resource and potentially using the Internet as a business network?
WAN Governance gives you full control and optimization of all applications over your global network, private cloud and public cloud.
The goal of IT is to support business processes and make workforces more efficient and to maximize their business value. WAN Governance provides full control and optimization of all enterprise applications over the global network to ensure that the WAN contributes to this ultimate goal. By implementing WAN Governance, enterprises:
- Discover, understand and communicate clear KPIs about application performance
- Control and dynamically optimize public and private applications over their global networks
- Guarantee performance and enforce application SLAs for all critical applications
- Optimize cost and performance across hybrid networks (MPLS + Internet)
- Encompass all users, wherever they are located
- Provide the agility and flexibility the enterprise requires to achieve business objectives
WAN Governance starts with the definition of global Application Performance Objectives. These objectives feed the Ipanema Autonomic Networking System™ (ANS), which implements four key, tightly coupled features: Application Visibility, QoS and Control, WAN Optimization and Dynamic WAN Selection to match application performance with user demand and available network resources.
