NetFoundry for Cloud

The Dawn of a New Network

The agility enabled by modern application development practices has been central to rapidly accelerating innovation and digital transformation. However, traditional networks and connectivity models were not designed to support the modern application environment, adding complexity to deployments, slowing time-to-market, and stifling innovation.

Common Pitfalls of Traditional Networks

● Traditional VPN technology that cannot support the agility required by cloud applications
● High expense of hardware-based networking platforms
● Complexity of managing and connecting multi-cloud environments
● Inflexibility and limitations of MPLS and SD-WAN solutions
● Increased security risks associated with on-net trust and single-dimensional TLS encryption
● Constraints of being locked-into telcos and network providers
● Performance issues from "hair pinning" edge-to-cloud traffic through core network
● Lack of zero trust application segmentation capabilities

The components within our orchestration console were designed to make building and augmenting AppWANs for multicloud and edge-to-cloud applications easy and seamless. For example, our virtual gateways, which connect your AppWANs to cloud instances, come pre-built to integrate quickly and seamlessly with popular providers such as AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform, and IBM Bluemix. They are also available as VMIs for ESXi 5.0 or greater for more custom deployments.
