Industry 4.0 changes everything

The convergence of innovation around IoT , cloud , AI , Big Data , and cybersecurity is dramatically shifting how organisations across diverse sectors function and compete .

This shift is disruptive but is also opening huge Digital Transformation opportunities to make industries more operationally efficient and customer centric .

The key is network and application visibility , security and control .

Legacy networks are becoming overwhelmed by these converging new technologies . Traditional hub and spoke WAN architectures , built for the pre-digital era , can ’ t adequately scale capacity on demand or adapt to real-time traffic to support the highly automated information and operating environments of the near future .

That ’ s worrying because an overloaded network can delay critical communications and operational functionality and efficiency will suffer . The pressure is on IT leaders to decide how and where to invest in their networking architecture to support and enable the deep and rapid Digital Transformation now required .

SD-WAN : One simple point of control across your multi-cloud universe

For new digital enterprises to effectively connect and thrive , their IT infrastructure needs to become automated to deliver security and reliable connectivity across distributed locations and operational eco-systems . That ’ s why CIOs are increasingly pursuing a dynamic , multi-cloud strategy , mixing public and private clouds and tailoring them to their unique , distributed business requirements to deliver the right performance and security across any cloud or location , without compromise . •
