Tata Communications launches IZO SDWAN

Tata Communications today launched the latest addition to its IZO cloud enablement platform - IZO SDWAN. 

As the myriad of different applications, clouds, data sources and connections create complexity for organisations, IZO SDWAN helps them detangle this complexity and propel their growth through seamless, secure and easy-to-manage connectivity across 130 countries spanning both developed and emerging markets.  
 
Underpinned by Tata Communications’ global network, IZO ecosystem, and partnerships with the world’s biggest cloud companies, IZO SDWAN boosts agility and flexibility for organisations. By enabling the instant deployment of branch office networks anywhere in the world, the new service helps organisations to expand and introduce new products and services faster, and adapt to rapidly changing market conditions. 
  
IZO SDWAN is a fully managed and modular overlay service that is tightly integrated with the underlay – the world’s largest and most advanced IP network. That is why it is quick, easy and risk-free to integrate into organisations’ existing network set-up – be it the public Internet, a hybrid network or a private WAN – boosting the efficiency of bandwidth use while reducing OPEX. 

By providing employees with faultless, secure access to applications and data, and empowering them to collaborate securely and seamlessly, IZO SDWAN enables organisations to drive further efficiencies, boost productivity and improve the bottom line.
 
“A new kind of platform economy is emerging, paving the way for innovative co-created services and business models that transform entire industries,” says Genius Wong, president, Global Network Services, Cloud and Data Centre Services, Tata Communications. 
 
Tata Communications has developed multiple variants of IZO SDWAN to suit its customers’ different business and technology requirements. 
 
To meet its customers’ constantly growing needs for cloud connectivity, Tata Communications is deploying 20 new cloud gateways for IZO SDWAN, with several more in the pipeline. These gateways, the IZO ecosystem offering secure, reliable connectivity to the clouds of Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud Platform, Microsoft Azure, Office 365 and Salesforce, and a single-pane-of-glass management portal, enable organisations to virtualise their network with scale, while ensuring the CIO has full visibility and control over the network. 
 
Tata Communications’ fast-growing IZO ecosystem gives multinational organisations the freedom to choose a cloud environment best suited to their requirements, underpinned by Tata Communications leading global network and partnerships.
