What is a Software-Defined Wide Area Network (SD-WAN)?

A software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) is a networking technology that can be applied to wide area networks such as those from broadband internet providers, or mobile networks like 4G or LTE. A SD-WAN connects multiple smaller networks over large geographic areas. This may include multiple offices of the same company or several separate data centers. SD-WAN technology streamlines broadband connectivity and allows for greater security over distance.
