Web Werks Data Centers has partnered with FatPipe Networks to offer enterprises a software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) solution. As a part of this collaboration, Web Werks has deployed FatPipe’s solutions across its locations to offer SD-WAN-enabled services to enterprises to simplify WAN architecture.

The association offers excellent flexibility to Web Werks’ customers in terms of connection choices. It gives customers centralised control of edge devices, ease of scalability and deployment at a lower total cost of ownership (TCO). By leveraging FatPipe’s advanced SD-WAN capabilities, Web Werks would enable its customers to get an end-to-end network optimising connectivity between branches and the cloud.

The rapid adoption of multi-cloud and software as service (SaaS) applications result from enterprises meeting the demands of a modern workforce. Web Werks VMX is a robust cloud platform that can be used to implement a private cloud within the data centre while also supporting intelligent software to integrate public cloud application platforms seamlessly. SD-WAN services aim to continually improve the platforms’ functionality with traffic identification and optimising connections to our customers’ most critical applications and services, increased network security and better-centralised management. Web Werks is a Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) empanelled cloud provider and has been providing services to enterprises and governments.

Commenting on the partnership, Nikhil Rathi, executive director and CEO, Web Werks, said, “By choosing the most advanced solution available from the inventors of SD-WAN, Web Werks Data Centers can leverage FatPipe’s unique patented technologies to bring the highest levels of global network performance. They can also provide customers with the highest WAN security and reliability.”

The technology offered by FatPipe would support failover to multiple data centres and simplify the deployment of enterprise-grade, multi-data centre resilient, cloud-hosted solutions. These are going to be highly beneficial for customers using real-time applications.

Meanwhile, Sanch Datta, president and CTO, FatPipe Networks, said, “We will achieve new market efficiencies. FatPipe finds a synergy by bridging Web Werks and its customers with its SD-WAN solutions, enabling Web Werks to offer advanced data centre services. To provide an end-to-end SD-WAN solution for enterprise customers, Fatpipe announced the general availability of built-in 4G/5G solutions, to enable partners to deploy a single appliance solution for retail stores which contains a landline and an independent 4G or 5G backup path. The product can be configured to minimise data flow through the long-term evolution (LTE) path, using Fatpipe’s acclaimed ‘Sat Booster’ technology designed for satellite traffic. The solution makes it easier for customers and their branches to be on-boarded, reducing the complexity of the network.”
