VMware SD-WAN™, a fundamental component of VMware SASE™ (Secure Access Service Edge), offers converged cloud networking and security services to achieve flexibility, agility, and scale for enterprises of all sizes. VMware SD-WAN is built on software-defined networking principles to address end-to-end automation, application continuity, branch transformation, and security from the edge to the data center and the cloud.

VMware SD-WAN and VMware SASE are emerging as a platform for enterprises to bring networking and edge compute together for modern applications, while delivering security and ubiquity of access for the distributed workforce. Only VMware delivers SD-WAN and SASE as a cloud-native, edge services architecture for today's distributed enterprises embracing cloud, workforce, and application transformation.

As a cloud-delivered solution, VMware SD-WAN ensures resilient WAN connectivity and allows users to have flexible WAN choices, such as broadband, MPLS, and LTE. VMware SD-WAN offers high application performance and availability while lowering networking costs. It can detect the slightest degradations and dynamically remediate over one or multiple WAN links, resulting in a highly satisfied user experience. While most enterprises deploy SDWAN hardware appliances at their branch locations, a software-based remote client is also available as an extension of VMware SD-WAN. Moreover, Enhanced Firewall Service, based on VMware's proven NSX security technology, is built into VMware SD-WAN Edges, providing comprehensive security and eliminating the need for legacy firewalls at branch locations.
