SD-WAN
MCL can implement a fully managed SD-WAN service, to give organisations the visibility, agility and control they need.
What SD-WAN means for you.
Annodata SD-WANs (Software Defined Wide Area Networks) use software to securely and intelligently connect users to applications. They overlay existing WAN services – including MPLS, broadband, 4G/5G and other connection types.
SD-WAN can ensure application performance, provide end-to-end visibility of all network traffic and reduce overall network costs.

Augmented Solution.
MCL support tradition connectivity solutions such as MPLS, Leased lines and Dedicated internet access, these can be augmented with a SD-WAN solution where flexibility, cost savings, resiliency and increased performance can be introduced.
The SD-WAN solution can be provided as a more cost-conscious dedicated internet-based service utilising the SD-WAN intelligence to offset the uncertainty of the performance of the public internet to provide a higher quality of service.
Digital transformation
When done right helps businesses build agility and resilience – enabling them to deliver new services, disrupt their sectors and become more productive.
The introduction of new technologies, applications and services can be game-changing. But as the demand for network performance and optimal user experience (UX) grows, it’s important not to overlook the underlying infrastructure that all of this operates on.
SD-WANs are becoming more widely adopted. More than 60% of businesses have deployed, are in the process of deploying, or are planning to deploy SD-WAN in the next 12 months.
Your network needs to evolve with your business.
With a shifting business landscape, organisations are changing the way things are done, for example
moving applications and services to the cloud.
The distributed workforce
With a rise in remote and hybrid working models, cloud, collaboration and mobility services are all placing increasing demands on the network.
As more people work from home, more of the time, keeping employees connected and providing access to the tools they require is essential. As in-person meetings decline and video meetings rise, lag and connection issues can lead to frustration and poor user experience.
The need for an agile network
Traditional WANs are not fit-for-purpose in a digital-first environment and are not designed for cloud connectivity.
The complexity of traditional WAN architecture means limited visibility into performance and security. Also, changes to configuration and deployment of new connections can take weeks or months to provision.
The move to cloud
As organisations move more applications to the cloud, there are several challenges that can be encountered.
Some applications are more business-critical than others and need to be kept at optimal performance at all times. Different applications and services require different network capabilities – e.g. video calling requires bandwidth and low-latency.
