ABOUT THE CONTENT
70% of applications have migrated to the cloud, yet most cloud apps suffer from monthly disruptions. Networks can’t keep pace with demand of the cloud, and most enterprises are years away from fully realizing the full benefits of the cloud.[push h=1]
Leading organizations are embracing a business-first networking model that conforms to business requirements, then uses automation and machine learning to make it work, instead of forcing the business conform to the constraints of the network. The Rise of the Business-First SD-WAN is driving IT leaders to rethink their wide area networks.
[push h=15]
We will focus on sharing lessons learned from how organizations implement a business-first SD-WAN including these topics:[push h=15]

• Discuss lessons learned from organizations that have adopted and deployed SD-WAN
• What are the case studies of how companies are driving business outcomes such as new economies of scale, reframing cost structures, accelerating M&A strategies, and significantly improving customer experiences?
• How do you partner with your organizational leadership to accelerate business objectives?
• How business-driven SD-WAN differs from a basic SD-WAN offering and the additional business value it delivers?
• Why does continuously enforced end-to-end segmentation offer more comprehensive branch office security than encrypted VPN overlays?
