Enter Route Optimization
Software-defined WAN and route optimization were developed as proactive ways to address performance inefficiencies and simplify network management. Using software to address the inherent complications of a multi-homed network can prevent Internet service bottlenecks from ballooning into business disasters.
Route optimization solutions monitor service levels across the routes of multiple carriers and alternate paths for traffic and assert routing entries consistent with the principles of business continuity. On-premise route control appliances use dynamic network analysis to provide real-time route optimization, which can be used to proactively reduce the risk of jitter, latency and outages that can affect productivity and revenue. They also allow enterprises to cut down on the human hours required to oversee and optimize the network manually — a task that is automated by the software.
