2 The world is vastly different than ten, five or even two years ago AI Empowered Customers IoT Cyber Security 83% Organizations at risk because of complexity 52% Fortune 500 firms since 2000 are gone Business Models 5B Emerging market middle-class consumers Digital Disruption 93% CxOs believe that digital will disrupt their business Globalization Cloud 66% Customers will try a new brand for better service 5 generations of workers and expectations Mobile Millennials Citrix

3 Leading to change in applications Cloud Delivered Expanding Bandwidth Intensive Public cloud is the source of 44% of enterprise traffic The average business in 2016 used 13 cloud applications IOT is a significant source of traffic in 55% of enterprises Endpoints are multiplying The number of network-connected devices in remote sites is going up in 84% of enterprises

4 the disruptions caused by the transformation to digital business models are driving adoption of SD- WAN at a pace that is unheard of in wide-area networking Gartner Gartner Forecast: SD-WAN and Its Impact on Traditional Router and MPLS Services Revenue, Worldwide, Citrix

5 What are characteristics of SD-WAN? Easy to manage It is application aware Highly reliable With abundant bandwidth And direct access to cloud Secure An enabler for corporate strategy 5

6 Citrix Our organization is looking for this investment to advance us forward in business resiliency and bring reliability to our network that has been heretofore unrealized due to our dependency on a singular connection source. Network connectivity is the lifeblood of our business to deliver on our member service. US Based Credit Union After making decision to deploy SD-WAN

10 NaturErhvervstyrelsen: Denmark s Fish and Agriculture Regulatory Agency The vessels had separate 4G/LTE connections from different mobile providers, but coverage was not consistent Why Solution enabled applications to seamlessly migrate among mobile connections without disruption or sacrificing security Minimized satellite use QoS capabilities ensured that mission critical data was prioritized over other applications. Results Uninterrupted connectivity without sacrificing security by combining services from multiple mobile providers Management GUI helps with troubleshooting connections Improved throughput for applications by combining available network bandwidth Citrix

16 Orianna Health Systems: Skilled Nursing Facilities Operator Challenges & Opportunities Established XenDesktop customer with 49 remote locations connected with MPLS New electronic medical record (EMR) project required immediate bandwidth upgrades, but MPLS was expensive ($500/site/month to increase to 10 Mbps) Needed reliable, effective connectivity for remote locations Why As an existing customer, Citrix is a trusted solution provider, and customer saw the benefits of a Citrix on Citrix approach Avoided $300K/yr. increase of network capacity upgrades with by bonding MPLS & broadband links for better use of existing bandwidth Results Ten month payback on the purchase versus scaling existing MPLS connections Immediate EMR rollout instead of days for MPLS (circuit) upgrades Instant failover/dr at remote sites for better application reliability & VoIP QoS Citrix

21 Rehab Management: Healthcare Provider Offering Rehabilitation Services Challenges: Needed more bandwidth for XenApp and XenDesktop and training videos Why solution would allow them to replace their MPLS connections with just their existing Internet (ADSL) access giving them 10x the bandwidth Results Reduced costs from $500/month/location to $100 by switching to 3 ADSL lines mitigated the performance risk by bonding 3 ADSL WAN links They now have sufficient bandwidth for XA/XD and video traffic Citrix
