Enterprise WAN Strategies Today Andy Gottlieb CEO Talari Networks
Next-generation Enterprise WANsa NEW Architecture • WAN Virtualization does for WANs what RAID did for storage lots more bandwidth hugely lower WAN service cost • WAN Virtualization plus other existing technologies enable a revolution in building Enterprise WANs lower networking OpEx • This NEW architecture provides pragmatic, evolutionary path to leveraging Cloud Computing lower overall IT, applications CapEx, OpEx
WAN Virtualization:Doing for WANs what RAID did for Storage Storage: The PC Hard disk RAID Mainframe/Minicomputer storage - 1980s Internet Resulting solution Higher capacity Lower cost Greater reliability Along comes key enabling technology Add layer of hardware and intelligent software… First we had Ent. WANs: Private WANs e.g. Frame Relay, MPLS The Internet! WAN Virtualization
Private WANs too Expensive;The Problem: Public WANs not Reliable Enough 99.99%? 99.95% 99.5% - 99.9% 99.x% 99%+ Reliability ~99% Frame Relay T1 ISP Tier 1 T1 ISP Tier 2 MPLS T1 With QoS Broadband SDSL $750 - $1500 SMALL absolute quality differences drive HUGE $/Mbps differences $450 - $1000 $350 - $600 $175 - $350 $150 - $250 $ / Mbps / Month $10-$15 (ADSL) $ 3-$15 (Cable)
WAN Virtualization Frame Relay / MPLS T1 ISP C T3/OC-3/ GE ISP A INTERNET xDSL ISP D ISP B Cable T3/OC-3/ GE Remote Office Data Center
Benefits of Virtualization Computing Single CPU Single OS Single CPU Virtual Machines Cloud Computing [Private, Public, Hybrid] Lower CapEx Still Lower CapEx Lower OpEx Greater Reliability MPLS/ Internet WAN Physical Network VPN WAN Virtualization Lower OpEx Somewhat Lower CapEx Much Lower OpEx Much More Bandwidth Greater Reliability Lower Computing CapEx, OpEx
Colocation – now a much bigger Intranet Role Internet Abundant Cheap WAN Virtualization makes Internet reliable enough for Ent. use Great Connectivity Bandwidth
Colocation plays a bigger role Internet Downsize or Eliminate Enterprise owned Data Centers
In This New Paradigm Network complexity further centralized Massively more bandwidth at remote and core locations Greater network diversity Added reliability, and… leverage with Telecom Service Providers Internet APN Huge WAN service cost savings Both lowered monthly WAN access bills, as well as massively lower cost/bit Far greater reliability, WAN application performance, and application performance predictability
