Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) adoption continues to increase as organisations look to replace traditional on-premise apps hosted in their own data centres. According to Finances Online, 73% of organisations expect that over 80% of their applications will be SaaS by 2020. So why are so many companies turning to SaaS?
There are many benefits to SaaS, including:
Moving applications to the cloud puts unprecedented pressure on legacy WAN networks. With traffic no longer going directly between the sites and the data centre, and instead travelling over the Internet, data packets become subjected to unexpected congestion and delays.
This is where SD-WAN comes into play. Utilising cloud technology to manage WAN infrastructure, the advantages of SD-WAN include:
SD-WAN optimises user experience for SaaS applications by analysing carrier networks in real time and intelligently routing traffic over multiple networks based on connection quality, application type and bandwidth requirements. This ensures the best response possible over the Internet.
According to the trend, moving corporate applications to the cloud is inevitable. But which applications you move and whether you support your SaaS applications with SD-WAN is dependent entirely on your business needs. The key is to work with a trusted partner who can assess these needs and propose a solution that delivers business outcomes for you.
At Enablis, we’re committed to taking the time to thoroughly understand what you do, what you want to do, and what you need to get you there. Through collaborative discussions, we’ll always recommend the solution that best fits your business requirements.
