Enhanced Performance and Cost Efficiency

HPE Aruba Networking EdgeConnect SD-WAN delivers reliable and business-driven connectivity for branch offices using Business Intent Overlays (BIOs) and combining multiple links, such as MPLS, internet, and 5G.

With advanced features like path conditioning and tunnel bonding, it provides a performance comparable to private-line connections over internet links, reducing reliance on costly MPLS.

The solution minimizes latency through WAN optimization techniques such as TCP acceleration, data compression, and data deduplication.

Additionally, AppExpress optimizes user experience for business-critical applications by automatically selecting the best path for each application, leveraging synthetic polling and real-time user traffic observations.

Seamless Multi-cloud Connectivity

Designed for a multi-cloud world, HPE Aruba Networking EdgeConnect SD-WAN intelligently routes application traffic to the cloud according to predefined business and security policies.

It eliminates the need to backhaul cloud-destined traffic to a data center by directly routing trusted traffic, such as real-time voice and video, to the cloud. First packet application identification enables secure local internet breakout to the closest SaaS and IaaS doorsteps.

This approach also supports end-to-end connectivity with leading cloud service providers, ensuring optimized performance and security across multi-cloud environments.

Simplified Branch Security with a Secure SD-WAN

HPE Aruba Networking EdgeConnect SD-WAN enables organizations to seamlessly replace branch firewalls as the solution includes a next-generation firewall with IDS/IPS and adaptive DDoS protection capabilities.

The HPE Aruba Networking ClearPass integration with HPE Aruba Networking EdgeConnect SD-WAN augments application intelligence with the user and device identity and role-based policy, enabling role-based segmentation.

Augmented with SWG (Secure Web Gateway), the solution protects all devices, including IoT, from web-based threats without requiring an SSE agent on each device.

This SWG integration offers comprehensive malware protection, web content filtering, and threat prevention, all managed from a central location. The cohesive approach of combining SD-WAN and SWG within a single solution provides superior security compared to other SD-WAN offerings.

Accelerated SASE Adoption

HPE Aruba Networking EdgeConnect SD-WAN is the cornerstone of HPE Aruba Networking SASE (Secure Access Service Edge), integrating seamlessly with HPE Aruba Networking SSE (Security Service Edge).

The tight integration with HPE Aruba Networking SSE accelerates the adoption of SASE, providing advanced security features like ZTNA (Zero Trust Network Access), SWG (Secure Web Gateway), and CASB (Cloud Access Security Broker).

By enabling secure, least-privilege access for remote workers and protecting sensitive data in cloud applications, our solution simplifies the journey to SASE and zero trust.

HPE Aruba Networking EdgeConnect SD-WAN also supports a best-of-breed approach to SASE by tightly integrating with multiple third-party SSE vendors facilitating SD-WAN deployment within sites already equipped with security solutions.
