On the 24th episode of the show, I'm joined by Rohan Naggi Sr. Technical Product Manager at VMware, and we discuss about VMware SD-WAN by VeloCloud.
SD-WAN is a booming market and it's promising to solve many challenges of traditional WAN solutions. There are tens of vendors in this market and VeloCloud has been one of the noteworthy ones since the beginning. VeloCloud has been acquired by VMware in 2017, and it's currently part of the Network and Security Business Unit.
We discuss many topics with Rohan, including the need for SD-WAN and why VeloCloud, then we look under the hood and discuss the architectural components of the solution. If you're looking for a primer on this topic, the level on this episode will be great for you.
