Citrix today announced the CloudBridge Virtual WAN Edition. The new CloudBridge Virtual WAN allows businesses to scale WAN bandwidth at a dramatically lower cost, reducing the cost of delivering applications, documents and IT services to branch offices by up to 80 percent, while ensuring nearly 100 percent application availability.
Enterprises have traditionally relied on costly MPLS services to avoid disruption to business, making the cost of scaling WAN bandwidth expensive for organizations. The new Citrix solution extends the CloudBridge platform and its integration with the company’s HDX and application acceleration technology, offering a cost effective, high performance solution for securely delivering mobile workspaces with the applications, documents and IT services people need to work better in remote and branch offices.
Key features include:
- Dramatically lower costs for expanding capacity – allows enterprises to augment MPLS with cost-effective broadband services in order to expand capacity for the delivery of high-priority application traffic, video and VOIP, while increasing reliability over a standalone MPLS-based WAN.
- Deliver superior user experience through improved quality for all application types – offers enterprises better mobile workspace user experience and high quality for voice or video over IP services. The experience is enabled through CloudBridge Virtual WAN appliances that continuously measure and monitor the latency, jitter and packet loss of every WAN connection and dynamically make path decisions using best quality paths.
- Convert backup links to active– many enterprises already have back-up links in place today but are not able to utilize them until a failure occurs. CloudBridge Virtual WAN enables enterprises to easily and seamlessly pool active and back-up link capacity, therefore eliminating wasted bandwidth.
- Ensure availability of high-priority applications – When one or more WAN services are impaired, CloudBridge Virtual WAN provides a failover system to ensure adequate bandwidth on the best-performing remaining paths is used to deliver business-critical applications.
- Easily manage and monitor WAN performance – presents enterprises with a simple, end-to-end management system that provides visibility into the WAN and all of the application delivery from the cloud, data Center or branch, through CloudBridge Virtual WAN Center.
- Securely connect cloud to branch – enables enterprises to combine datacenter and cloud application delivery through the use of advanced encryption between CloudBridge devices on customer premises or in the cloud when using the Internet.
