There is a growing need for a high-performance access network on hybrid cloud infrastructure using virtual services for rapid deployment. But it must also be built on a cost-effective, COTS multimedia platform. Leading-edge technology takes advantage of the scalability of Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN) and advanced encryption technology to simplify the solution and reduce overhead costs from 40% to 15%.

In this session, William Balmer will show how ADVA Ensemble technology and advanced secure encryption techniques will allow cloud customers to realize high-level protection at less cost in bandwidth and latency compared with the traditional method of IPsec.
