Azure Virtual WAN

Azure Virtual WAN is a diverse connectivity service that brings together networking, connectivity, security, monitoring, and routing features. It provides a centralized console for the management of our network backbone. Earlier our network connectivity options were limited and disoriented but after implementing Azure Virtual WAN, we were able to build a Global network backbone with managed points of presence all across the globe.

CenturyLink SD-WAN Solutions

Although it is one of the most highly trusted and highly reliable high-speed internet connections, there are times when CenturyLink SD-WAN Solutions had unexpected outages which ran longer than normal causing service degradation. That should be looked at.

The umbrella of features provided by Azure Virtual WAN made it the right choice for our infrastructure.
