What is SD-WAN?
SD-WAN (Software-Defined Wide Area Network) is a modern approach to building and operating enterprise networks, where the network is controlled through software rather than physical configuration of each individual router and firewall. This gives organizations better performance, greater flexibility, and simpler management—especially as more applications move to the cloud.
SD-WAN uses multiple connection types, such as fiber, 5G, or satellite, and automatically selects the best path for traffic based on real-time conditions. Metaphorically, SD-WAN can be seen as a navigation system that continuously analyzes traffic and always finds the fastest and safest route—without the driver having to think about it.
