Silver Peak expands SD-WAN ecosystem with Infoblox, Nutanix, and Zscaler

Editorial Type: News     Date: 08-2015    Views: 2758   






New Silver Peak alliances offer enterprises increased flexibility, security and cost savings for easily deploying broadband WANs.

Silver Peak has teamed with Infoblox, Nutanix and Zscaler to expand its Unity EdgeConnect ecosystem for building software-defined WANs (SD-WANs). These alliances provide a new set of secure, optimised, and interoperable hardware and software solutions for deploying broadband and hybrid WANs, and reducing branch office OPEX/CAPEX when connecting users to applications.

“Silver Peak is dramatically reducing the cost and complexity of building a WAN through broadband internet connectivity, and our simplified deployment options pave the path to a ‘thin’ branch office architecture,” said Damon Ennis, SVP of products for Silver Peak. “We are excited to take our Unity EdgeConnect solution to the next level by enabling customers to build a broadband WAN that interoperates with industry-leading networking, infrastructure, and internet security technologies. By joining forces with Infoblox, Nutanix and Zscaler, customers benefit by having more options to quickly connect, secure and scale their branch offices.”

Infoblox centralises and helps to secure DNS, DHCP and IP address management
Infoblox provides integrated and centrally-managed DNS, DHCP, and IP address management (DDI) to support evolving IT needs while providing high standards for service uptime, operational efficiencies, security, and IT ecosystem integration. While Silver Peak EdgeConnect appliances allow new sites to be connected in minutes, the Infoblox DDI solution helps to reduce the amount of time it takes to deploy network services to those remote sites. Silver Peak Unity EdgeConnect DHCP and DNS forwarding supports centralised Infoblox deployments (in either a data centre or regional hub) enabling centralised, scalable management of DDI services and is transparent to end-users and applications.

Nutanix offers hyperconverged infrastructure for EdgeConnect virtual appliance deployments
Nutanix delivers invisible infrastructure for next-generation enterprise computing by integrating storage, compute and virtualisation into a turnkey hyperconverged solution. Built on a distributed web-scale architecture, a single Nutanix solution can simultaneously run many workloads, including Silver Peak Unity EdgeConnect virtual appliances. The combination of Nutanix and Silver Peak EdgeConnect virtual appliances provides customers even faster ROI, greater flexibility and simplified SD-WAN deployments across data centres, regional hubs, and branch offices.

Zcaler secures broadband internet traffic from the branch

Operating in more than 100 data centres distributed around the globe, Zscaler delivers unified, carrier-grade internet security, advanced persistent threat (APT) protection, data loss prevention, SSL decryption, traffic shaping, policy management, and threat intelligence - without the need for on-premise hardware, appliances or software. When Silver Peak’s Unity EdgeConnect is deployed directly onto the internet in branch offices, Zscaler enables employees to access the internet securely by scanning all incoming and outgoing traffic between the EdgeConnect appliances and the internet to identify and block potential threats and to protect intellectual property.
