FatPipe SD-WAN

What FatPipe SD-WAN is

FatPipe SD-WAN is a platform for organizations connecting one or multiple sites, including branches, cloud environments, data centers, disaster recovery locations, and IoT deployments. It is designed to improve WAN availability and application performance, reduce branch office costs, and support multi-cloud environments. FatPipe says it can provide 99.998% WAN reliability. The product balances traffic across Internet and private links, including per-packet balancing without duplicating traffic, and can automatically fail over to additional lines. Routing features include a single IP framework across diverse lines, Smart DNS inbound load balancing, BGP, OSPF, and EIGRP. Site and VPN failover support continuity and disaster recovery. Application QoS, optimization, control policies, and real-time reports help manage application traffic. FatPipe Orchestrator centrally manages WAN and branch configurations and supports zero-touch appliance deployment. Deployment options include on-premise, cloud, and hybrid models, with central management or integration with existing network tools. Security capabilities include MPSec multipath security, certificate- and key-based encryption, and native security; FatPipe says its IPsec tunnels are FIPS 140-2 compatible. FatPipe for AWS provides optimized access to AWS-hosted applications under AWS's Bring Your Own License model, and the product also integrates with Nutanix Acropolis Hypervisor.
