Network Infrastructure
An organization’s agility and productivity depend on a robust, secure, and reliable network infrastructure. An optimized network infrastructure improves your customer’s and employee’s experience, reduces security threats, and enables your organization to maintain its highest level of performance.
What is Network Infrastructure?
Network infrastructure is the hardware, software, and other resources that enable network and Internet connectivity, unified communications, and business operations. It provides the communication path between users, processes, applications, services, external networks, and the Internet.
Typical network infrastructure includes:
- SD-WAN Technology
- LAN Technology
- Network Management
- Firewalls
- Intrusion Detection System
- Performance Management
- Gateways
- MPLS Connections
- Private Line Circuits
- Data Center Networks
- Internet Access
- Wireless Infrastructure
- Virtual Servers
- Operating Systems
- Network Security Applications
- Intrusion Prevention System
- Virtual Private Networks (VPNs)
- Load Balancers
- IP Addressing
- Domain Name System (DNS)
- Routers
- Structured Cabling
What are the benefits of a modern Network Infrastructure?
Current network architectures are not simple. They are often a mix of on-premises and cloud environments, with multiple vendor’s hardware and software. The result is that companies can end up with five separate tools that all monitor and manage one large hybrid enterprise network.
Today’s network infrastructure is being significantly changed by emerging networking technologies like software-defined networking (SDN) and network functions virtualization (NFV). SDN and NFV are used to accelerate the transition from on-premises enterprise networks and data centers to cloud or hybrid cloud computing networks.
For evolving user requirements, a modern network infrastructure:
- Increases an organization’s productivity, performance, and security
- Improves product capabilities
- Supports remote users
- Enhances the security of a broad spectrum of enterprise services
