What is Governance? Governance is the activity of governing. It relates to decisions that define expectations, grant power, or verify performance. It consists either of a separate process or of a specific part of management or leadership processes. (source Wikipedia)
What is WAN Governance?Aligning the WAN to the needs of the business. Defining, verifying and guaranteeing the performance of applications running over the WAN.A sub-discipline within overall IT Governance.
What is a Hybrid Network?Hybrid networks use a combination of any two or more topologies (source Wikipedia)
E.g. MPLS/Internet; MPLS/MPLS; MPLS/MPLS/Internet;...
WAN what? Hybrid Who? Let’s define some terms...

What’s the real challenge?
You’re on the way to the Cloud…
Private and hosted datacenters
Mobile users, home office
Hybrid networks
Public Internet
…and yet you need to perform today
IT cost savings
Total business continuity

“The network” is at the heart of all this transformation – but there are many challenges
4
How do you get full visibility over your global network?
Communicate clear data about application performance
Discover which applications use your network resources
Understand the root cause of slow applicationsHow do you deliver business applications?
Guarantee voice, tele-presence and data over a converged network
Ensure excellent application performance to your distributed workforce
Manage social media and recreational applications
How do you save money on WAN costs?
Take advantage of the Internet as a business network
Reduce your bandwidth requirements now and plan for tomorrow
Get global control without deploying technology everywhere

Why Hybrid Networking? … Performance
Performance is bound to available bandwidth and by distance
MPLS bandwidth is limited
Internet broadband is everywhere
ww

Why Hybrid Networking? … Continuity
Business continuity requires redundant network infrastructures
MPLS: 99,9%
MPLS + Internet: 99,99%

Why Hybrid Networking? … Savings
Find the right balance between
MPLS value priced bandwidth
Internet cheap bandwidth

Why Hybrid Networking? … Cloud
Get direct access to the Cloud
Don’t waste MPLS bandwidth
Don’t add unnecessary delay with central Internet gateways
Use local direct Internet accesses

Aren’t Hybrid Networks difficult? … #1
Issue #1: Increased operational costs
Management of the PBR configuration is tricky, time consuming and error prone
ww

Aren’t Hybrid Networks difficult? … #2
Issue #2: Sub optimal performance
Links are under-used as PBR is based on static and local parameters
No contingency when link quality degrades
No ability to distinguish business apps based on layer 7 criteria (URL …)

Aren’t Hybrid Networks difficult? … #3
Issue #3: how will it combine with other technologies: Visibility, WAN Optimization, QoS … ?
How do you report on it?How do you control overall performance?How do you consistently accelerate?

ANS guarantees the performance of critical
applications on unequipped sites
Congestion occurs at the destination
Devices placed at the source cannot handle it properly
The bursty Email sessions “kill” the SAP transactions
A second user in the unequipped branch office initiates an Email session
A user in the unequipped branch office initiates a
SAP session
The same user in the unequipped branch office initiates an Email session
Ipanema devices coordinate together and traffic is controlled at the
source
