Infovista has launched its next generation Ipanema SD-WAN platform, designed to deliver different workloads and applications faster and more securely across conventional Wide Area Networks and multiple cloud service providers.
The Ipanema SD-WAN platform delivers the truly software-defined benefits of allowing critical applications to dynamically adapt to the real-time conditions of the network while prioritizing the prevailing business imperatives. It provides the robust foundation for any managed network service, leveraging high levels of automation established between multiple cloud instances and multi-cloud on-ramp features.
Ipanema SD-WAN’s transformative capabilities are delivered through strategic partnerships with Check Point and Equinix. Key integrations with Equinix and Check Point form an innovative full cloud-native SD-WAN platform licensed through a consumption-based model, enhancing business agility and time-to-market requirements. The complete platform encompasses Equinix Fabric, a cutting-edge software-defined interconnection solution that fuels ‘CloudMesh’ functionality, focused on delivering automated low-latency full-mesh and multi-cloud connectivity. The Ipanema SD-WAN platform also comprises Check Point Harmony Connect, a leading cloud-based Networking Security system which lays the foundation for ‘EdgeSentry’ capabilities.
As channel partners continuously seek to meet the dynamic demands from their customers, and potentially diversify their service catalogues in the process, the Ipanema SD-WAN platform offers a pre-integrated stack to deliver advanced software-defined networking and security capabilities, that can help reduce complex and expensive rip-and-replace projects otherwise warranted when transforming Wide Area Networks to meet critical business demands.
The strategic partnerships with both Equinix and Check Point allow Infovista’s channel partners to move IP network traffic dynamically into an advanced, cloud-based edge security platform. This platform offers a low-latency cloud-based mesh, which enables pulling sites and multi-cloud destinations together on-demand that can also carry-out advanced security and software defined network routing functions.

Our next generation SD-WAN platform is a definitive cloud-first enabler. This is more than a ‘feature release’ because with this launch, we shift SD-WAN to a truly on-demand service that can be deployed, consumed, and scaled like any other cloud service.
