Business Challenge
• The company needed a network that could provide sufficient guaranteed bandwidths and latency to meet the prescribed Service Level Agreement (SLA) • Each video stream needed to be encrypted to secure data from hackers and other threats • For the application to survive equipment and link failures, the network needed to be structured in a highly available manner • The company needed absolute control of each stream to measure performance, analyse data and troubleshoot issues • The network needed to be flexible so that it could adapt to different location requirements and Cloud capabilities
Business Impact
