Epsilon, a global connectivity service provider, has expanded its data services portfolio with the addition of the Aruba EdgeConnect SD-WAN edge platform, acquired with Silver Peak.
Epsilon’s customers can now deploy an industry-leading SD-WAN edge platform to simplify their WAN infrastructures and achieve greater visibility and control of data centre and cloud-hosted applications. By partnering with Aruba, Epsilon combines the EdgeConnect platform with Epsilon’s global network fabric to deliver a unified SD-WAN solution for enterprises.
Epsilon’s SD-WAN offers a single platform for enterprises to centrally manage and monitor their WAN traffic via the Aruba Orchestrator. It also allows network managers to increase application performance with WAN Optimisation and seamlessly integrate with cloud security providers. Enterprises can deploy the unified SD-WAN solution over Epsilon’s global network fabric to connect to new sites and cloud service providers under a single contract.
Epsilon has been focused on collaborating with technical partners to meet increasing customer demands for edge and cloud connectivity. This strategy enables Epsilon to tap on the knowledge of industry leaders and efficiently grow its service offering. The partnership with Aruba comes after the recent partnership with Aviatrix to deliver an advanced multi-cloud networking solution.
