1 MASERGY S MANAGED New Performance Options for Hybrid Networks Business Challenges WAN Ecosystem Features and Benefits Use Cases

2 INTRODUCTION Organizations are leveraging technology to transform the way they conduct business; from the product and services they deliver, to the manner in which they interact with customers, partners and employees This digital transformation is critical to success in today s digital world and requires a fundamental reconsideration of information technology strategy The increased adoption of public cloud services and software as a service (SaaS), the ubiquity of broadband access and new specialized enterprise applications are key trends driving digital transformation To fully harness these disruptive trends, a fundamental shift in the design and delivery of the enterprise network the central nervous system of the modern enterprise is required Legacy, one-size-fits-all networks are rigid and lack the flexibility and programmability companies require to gain a competitive edge in today s digital world Enterprise networks need to be as agile as the cloud Others argue that lack of interoperability standards and performance guarantees coupled with implementation complexity will stunt widespread enterprise adoption of for the foreseeable future Masergy, a pioneer in developing and leveraging disruptive technologies that transform enterprise networking, security, and communications, recently concluded extensive testing of several commercially available solutions Masergy found that while is still evolving, it is a valuable, performance enhancing technology when applied appropriately As a result, Masergy is launching fully Managed as yet another powerful component of its global Hybrid Networking solution suite Performance Visibility is a relatively new approach to deploying WANs to meet business and application performance requirements Software-Define WAN () is a relatively new approach to designing and deploying wide area networks to meet business and application performance requirements It combines application performance-enhancing capabilities with centralized orchestration for rapid service deployment Given the ubiquity and commoditization of broadband access, some suggest that the combination of broadband and will soon dominate the enterprise WAN marketplace Extensible Security 1

3 HYBRID NETWORKING WITH Our global Software Defined Platform powers Masergy s Hybrid Networking solutions Enterprises can access this platform via three fully managed connectivity options: Intelligent Connectivity, which delivers high performance, private connectivity Network as a Service, which offers secure tunnels through client-provided broadband connections Masergy, which provides connectivity combined with proactive monitoring Once connected, an unlimited number virtual network environments and a full line of managed network functions can be deployed to create highly customized networks optimized for each client s unique price and performance requirements Masergy brings many of its proven Hybrid Networking capabilities to Managed, including rapid deployment, simplified change management, and real time analytics and service control Masergy s Intelligent Service Control (ISC) portal remains the central user interface that provides application-specific analytics and policy controls for Managed solutions Masergy s Managed is transport agnostic and can be used to enhance global hybrid networks or deployed natively over broadband connections Whether companies are looking to enhance application performance with dynamic application-based routing, enhanced security with encrypted tunnels or simply want to intelligently aggregate data over two or more WAN connections to drive cost efficiencies and survivability, Masergy designs the best networking solution based on each customer s specifications Managed is transport agnostic and can be used on any hybrid network or broadband connection MANAGED NETWORK FUNCTIONS PREMISE, VIRTUAL, CLOUD ROUTERS FIREWALLS SESSION BORDER CONTROLLERS WAN OPTIMIZATION WAN ENCRYPTION UNLIMITED VIRTUAL ENVIRONMENTS MPLS VPLS VPWS INTERNET + ANALYTICS AND SERVICE CONTROL MASERGY SOFTWARE DEFINED PLATFORM CONNECTIVITY OPTIONS Intelligent Connectivity Networking as a Service CLOUD MARKETPLACE 2

4 REALITY CHECK, like all new technologies, comes with its share of industry hype There are some key considerations IT professionals need to take into account when adopting this service Most products and services provide the following features: Application reporting Zero-touch provisioning Active-Active WAN links and MPLS overlays Centralized policy management Policy-based application routing Hardware and virtualized deployment models But there are drawbacks to solutions The overhead associated with tunneling and limited routing capabilities need to be taken into account Upload speeds may be constrained when using solely over broadband And while centralized policy management and zero touch provisioning make seem like a convenient plug and play solution, in fact, set-up and maintenance is often complex When implementing a new technology, there can be unanticipated execution risks and expenses that are inherently greater than with well-established solutions Masergy s Managed helps mitigate these risks by handling all design, deployment, maintenance and ongoing 24x7 monitoring of the solution Whether is being used to enhance a hybrid network or combined with broadband access to deliver a pure over-thetop only solution, Masergy s Managed delivers the latest innovations while avoiding vendor lock in and unanticipated implementation challenges More companies are sending their data to cloud service providers through multiple connections MANAGED SUPPORTS MULTIPLE TRANSPORT OPTIONS BROADBAND MPLS 3

5 MASERGY MANAGED : FEATURES AND BENEFITS The Masergy Managed solution is the latest addition to Masergy s Managed Network f(n) family of fully managed network services Consistent with our modular and extensible approach to network design, is available across three deployment models: Dedicated premise hardware Distributed virtualized software implementations Cloud based These deployment models can be combined in a hybrid architecture and interoperate seamlessly for maximum design flexibility In addition to the standard features listed above, Masergy s Managed also offers: Adaptive forward error correction Dynamic path control Direct peering for native routing MPLS, NaaS and broadband transports Centralized policy and configuration management Traffic classification based on application, DSCP, or IP header WAN optimization Since Managed is transport agnostic, it can be deployed in conjunction with any combination of Masergy Intelligent Connectivity, Network as a Service (NaaS), and Managed Broadband IT supports full mesh and hub-and-spoke network topologies The solution comes standard with business intent policy overlays that can be customized for each unique client environment Business intent routing policies can be applied based on subnet, application type, protocol, and VLAN or DSCP information Business-policy routing lets customers switch transports on the fly based on client-defined parameters, as opposed to destination-based routing, which does not support this capability Dynamic Path Control provides real-time traffic steering to diverse WAN links and business intent overlays, intelligently utilizing all available bandwidth and enabling sophisticated failover recovery in the event of an outage or brownout Adaptive forward error correction and real time packet order correction further enhances application performance, especially when utilizing broadband connectivity Additional WAN optimization enhancements, such as data de-duplication, compression, caching and TCP/IP acceleration, are also available And all VPN tunnels are automatically established and secured with 256 AES encryption BUSINESS INTENT OVERLAYS LIMITED NORMAL PRIORITY CRITICAL VIDEO VOICE TRANSPORT MPLS NaaS Broadband Business intent overlays create virtual networks that support multiple transport options and application performance requirements Masergy provides six business intent policy overlays 4

6 USE CASES Managed is an attractive option for companies with growing bandwidth requirements and the desire to dynamically leverage multiple connections to increase application performance and drive price-performance optimization The three most prevalent use cases are: Multi-active path over hybrid networks Primary path for hybrid networks for small offices Pure broadband internet overlays MULTI-ACTIVE PATH OVER HYBRID NETWORKS In the use case below, multiple WAN links, including broadband, MPLS, and NaaS, are used to enable dynamic application-based routing Although other techniques, like split tunneling, can be leveraged to enable active-active use of multiple connections, these techniques simply cannot match the sophistication of dynamic policy based routing available via Managed Multi-active path also delivers resiliency with fast failover capabilities Managed is an attractive option for companies with growing bandwidth requirements Critical Apps Real-Time Apps Masergy Software Defined Platform MPLS Intelligent Connectivity NaaS Access Cloud Apps File Sharing MTE 5

7 USE CASES In the second use case below, Managed can be used to enhance NaaS with dynamic policy-based routing and forward error correction Masergy s NaaS leverages broadband connections to deliver secure tunnels into virtual networks deployed on the Masergy high-performance global network NaaS is regularly used to cost effectively and securely connect small and remote offices to virtual private networks By combining NaaS with, priority traffic can be dynamically routed over the Masergy network to reduce jitter and increase performance Private SMALL OFFICE - PRIMARY PATH Masergy Software Defined Platform MPLS Managed offers dynamic policy-based routing and forward error correction Public MTE > 6

8 USE CASES The third scenario below makes exclusive use of cost-efficient broadband links The primary challenges of pure broadband overlays include performance issues such as jitter, latency and packet loss, along with less-desirable mean time to repair (MTTR) guarantees of the broadband connection itself While no technology can overcome lack of stringent MTTR service level agreements, Managed helps neutralize some of the performance limitations by applying Forward Error Correction (FEC) to recover dropped packets and improve the quality of data transmissions The use of multiple broadband connections deliver resiliency with fast failover capabilities PURE BROADBAND INTERNET OVERLAYS Managed helps neutralize some of the performance limitations of the 7

9 CONCLUSION provides an effective means for companies to make maximum use of all of the capacity they are paying for Masergy s Managed solution delivers the most advanced feature set on the market as a fully managed solution, mitigating the risks and expenses associated with deploying any new technology on your own Is right for your network evolution?
