With enterprises’ multi-cloud architectures, Zero Trust security models, and internet-based wide-area networks (WANs), network transformation with software-defined WAN (SD-WAN) has become more important than ever.

Early adopters of SD-WAN took a do-it-yourself approach to implementing the technology, but today, most enterprises consume SD-WAN as a managed service.

Next month, we will join Enterprise Management Associates (EMA) and Juniper in presenting a webinar about the top five trends driving innovation in the private enterprise networking space and will share the benefits of our popular AI SD-WAN offering, made possible in part by Juniper’s technology.

According to EMA VP of Research Shamus McGillicuddy, research reveals that companies are more successful with SD-WAN transformation when they consume the technology as a managed service.

Shamus will pose the questions during the July 11 webinar (register here): “How can an IT organization know if it is choosing the right managed service?”

Join top SD-WAN vendors Juniper Networks and ConnX to discover the five things you need to know about the power of a managed SD-WAN solution.

You’ll also learn about why so many enterprises are choosing managed SD-WAN over DIY deployments, what to look for in an SD-WAN provider, tips for optimizing Day 2 operations with managed SD-WAN, and how to chart a path to the future, including secure access service edge (SASE).

We’ve been successfully deploying our AI SD-WAN offering, including Active Assurance, over the last two years, working closely with Juniper.

ConnX AI-driven SD-WAN reduces costs, secures connectivity, and enables integration of disparate technology platforms. Our solutions can be standalone to solve the most challenging data network requirements, or they can be fully integrated with ConnX Communications and Collaboration for a one-of-a-kind user experience.

Features and Benefits of ConnX AI-Powered SD-WAN:

  • Tunnel-free technology eliminates 30 to 50% of wasted bandwidth
  • Automation and Zero-touch provisioning for precise and rapid deployment
  • Granular network visibility reduces impairments and trouble-resolution time
  • Zero trust ensures session integrity and effective security

ConnX AI-Driven Enterprise (AIDE) is a Service framework designed for integrating HQ, DC, Cloud, Branch & Remote Work locations & Mobile centric networks, designed around a policy-based secure access SD-WAN augmented by AI and Automation for rapid deployment and unparalleled service assurance.

ConnX SD-WAN is a completely integrated, end-to-end Managed Service offering that solves major problems most enterprises face when they experience service impairments.

Identifying the impairment is 90% of the battle, but how can one determine if the problem is in the carrier network or somewhere in their network if they don’t have end-to-end visibility? We’ve all been there. ConnX AI Service Assurance is the solution, and you can learn more about this and benefit from case studies as part of this upcoming webinar.

Real-Time Collaboration Solutions: How People and Machines Can Combine Forces With Easy Integrations

There are twists and turns everywhere AI and robots take us, but not everything is black and white. Even as critics proclaim the death of millions of jobs given how fast robotics and AI are advancing, like the latest flurry over ChatGPT and other generative AI programs, there is a hybrid truth emerging – and that is “co-botting.” Co-botting refers to manufacturing robots on factory floors that work alongside people to build things in a safer, more efficient, more profitable, and for many, a more enjoyable environment.
