Talari Launches Cloud Solution That Tackles Unreliable And Unpredictable Connections To The Cloud

Solution Supports Growing Need To Expand Business-critical Apps Into The Cloud

Talari, a leading innovator in intelligent network solutions that transform the capabilities and reliability of the WAN by adding real-time intelligence to the network, recently announced, a solution that transforms public cloud access links into secure, reliable and manageable points on any wide area network (WAN). This new solution gives businesses the control and oversight they need to trust business-critical applications to the cloud.

Talari’s latest solution addresses the ongoing market concern over reliability and predictability when connecting to the cloud over public access broadband links, removing one of the barriers to the wide-spread adoption of business-critical applications in the cloud. Businesses deploying Talari can treat the cloud like any other location on their WAN, which means access to public applications, such as salesforce.com and Dropbox and private cloud applications running in Amazon Web Services (AWS) is over a secure and reliable connection the IT team can manage.

With Talari, access to applications in the cloud isn’t interrupted by network quality issues or failures, bandwidth becomes predictable and data is secure. It is Talari’s packet-by-packet adaptive private networking intelligence that facilitates the aggregation of multiple broadband and/or Amazon Direct Connect links, the continuous measurement and monitoring of the quality of each possible path in each direction and the adaptation of traffic flows in real time to route around failures and poor quality links that makes moving business-critical applications up into the cloud worry-free for the IT team. The results of the measurements are centrally stored to give IT managers a comprehensive and detailed view of the quality of each network path to the cloud and the quality received by applications across that network, allowing them to separate issues on the cloud access network from issues on the cloud applications themselves.

“Talari was the first to aggregate IP links with the ability to route and reroute real-time traffic to the best performing link on a per-packet basis to ensure always on uptime of business-critical applications, essentially revolutionizing the traditional WAN,” said Chris Ward, GreenPages’ CTO. “Now Talari is taking innovation to the next level and bringing the cloud down to the WAN. This new offering from Talari is a great solution for GreenPages because it allows us to offer our customers greater reliability and security when migrating apps to the cloud.”

Thousands of business sites around the world are using Talari’s intelligent solution to increase capacity, improve reliability and lower costs across their wide area network. In conjunction with the release of the cloud solution, the company has added enhanced security features, such as 256 bit AES encryption and application level quality scoring over the WAN and up to the cloud. These new features apply to physical sites, as well as the cloud access network.

“Whether cloud computing is the future in enterprise IT networking is an area of strategic debate within IT organizations worldwide. Concerns over security, reliability, visibility and end-to-end service level guarantees are some of the factors contributing to this debate,” said John Dickey, Talari’s co-founder & CTO. “We’re proud to be among the first to eliminate these concerns by pulling the cloud down into the wide area network. With Talari, issues are isolated and service disruptions are minimized for the end users, giving IT managers the assurance, control and visibility they need to trust the cloud for business-critical applications.”

Dickey continued, “With enterprise cloud adoption in its early stage and hybrid WAN models emerging, the market is ready for an intelligent network that delivers service-level assurance. Using our adaptive private network technology, Talari will help to seamlessly ease the migration of key applications to the cloud, providing greater peace of mind for service sustainability.”
