Next-Generation SD-WAN SolutionNext-Generation SD-WAN Solution

As times change, so does architecture and how we secure it. With the move from traditional WAN to SD-WAN (Software Defined-WAN), the need to keep it secure has not changed, and we want to make it as simple to use, deploy and manage. 

 

Palo Alto Networks has been able to release a lot of great innovating solutions over the years, but now we are happy to introduce the industry's first Next Generation SD-WAN solution, Prisma SD-WAN (formerly CloudGenix).

 

With this new approach to SD-WAN, we have been able to integrate the following characteristics:

  • App Defined - Providing application layer visibility enabling network teams to create app-based policies and deliver SLAs for all apps, improving the end-user experience.
  • Autonomous - Automated operations and problem avoidance using machine learning and data science, eliminating up to 99% of WAN and application access trouble tickets.
  • Cloud-delivered - Enabling all branch services to be delivered from the cloud, including networking and security, simplifying WAN management and enabling branches to be rolled out in minutes instead of months.

 

Today, Palo Alto Networks is introducing a number of new additions to it’s Next-Generation SD-WAN solution:

  • Machine learning-based capabilities to further simplify network operations
  • A small form factor SD-WAN appliance designed for retail and small offices/home offices (SOHO)
  • A high-performance SD-WAN appliance suited for large campus locations
  • Seamless integration of Prisma™ Access cloud-delivered security

Prisma Access Security Integration

Along with everything else, we are also seamlessly integrating our Next-Generation Prisma SD-WAN with Prisma Access. 

This integration will allow customers to secure both intra- and inter-branch traffic, as well as any traffic to public of private clouds.

 

More Information

An overview of the Prisma SD-WAN solution and the new capabilities is available at www.paloaltonetworks.com/prisma/sd-wan.html.
