AT&T is collaborating with VeloCloud to deliver AT&T Software-defined Wide Area Network (SD-WAN) to meet the varying needs of businesses large and small, across various industries and regions. VeloCloud is part of the AT&T Integrated Cloud ecosystem focused on the SD-WAN.
In addition to VeloCloud, AT&T plans to collaborate with more SD-WAN technology companies as part of its evolving ecosystem to support customers’ needs.
The AT&T SD-WAN portfolio will include a network-based solution that combines hybrid networking with multiple types of network access. The network-based solution will be available in 2017.
According to AT&T, SD-WAN efficiently routes data traffic across a wide area network, choosing the access type for the best network performance. This split-second routing capability optimizes application performance based on the parameters selected by customers.
