COVID - 19
SDN technology is helping businesses overcome the new networking requirements that the COVID-19 pandemic unceremoniously ushered in.
The global health crisis has changed the networking game,
In some cases, overnight employees all over the globe left the enterprise campus and began working from home full-time, creating millions of mini branches that had to be accommodated. At the same time, businesses have had to re-think their approach to networking
and IT. That’s because they were facing supply chain issues, or simply couldn’t afford large, premise-based technology refreshes anymore
as COVID-19 spurred an economic downturn.
But the silver lining is SDN technology used in YCN 1-2-3. This agile approach to network management is giving businesses the programmability and scalability they want, without breaking the bank. And it’s letting both businesses and channel partners add new services on the fly, like security capabilities and SD-WAN.
