SevOne Enables Smooth Takeoff to SDN
Customer: Major Asian Airlines
Situation
Overview:
An increasingly mobile and connected workforce using the web, smartphones, tablets and
other connected devices to conduct business in new ways resulted in fluctuations in demand
for bandwidth and capacity needed to support applications and network services
Network
Modernization:
• Deployed Cisco ACI platform as the foundation of a new SDN environment, delivering:
– Ability to dynamically and efficiently provision employee devices with optimal amounts of
networking capacity and bandwidth
– Flexibility to adapt to future network requirements
• New SDN environment required a network monitoring solution capable of:
– Ensuring smooth transition to new networking environment
– Enabling delivery of reliable, high-quality network services
– Accommodating next phases of growth and planning for future requirements
SDN
Challenges:
SevOne
Delivered:
• Unified monitoring of traditional and software-defined networks during migration to avoid
implementation problems
• Full visibility into software-defined networking’s highly dynamic provisioning to facilitate
network management
• Real-time visualization of virtual and physical layers to ensure service quality and reliability
• Efficient implementation to provide short time-to-value

SevOne SD-WAN Monitoring Solution for Cisco SD-WAN
Built in knowledge to monitor the transition to
and ongoing operations of Cisco and multi-
vendor SD-WANs
Leverage the power of the SevOne Data
Platform with pre-defined KPIs, automated
baselines, integrated troubleshooting workflows
and dashboards supporting:
 Enterprise & Multi-Tenant MSP Operations
 Service and Network Monitoring
 WAN KPIs
− Utilization, Latency, Jitter, Availability, Packet Loss
 Path Details
− Site to Site activities
 Application
− Per App KPI, app path taken, alternate path

Common SD-WAN Management Challenges
Lack of visibility of site-to-site
performance
Lack of awareness of new SD-
WAN policies are working as
intended
Lack of data to plan new SD-WAN
policies
No Unified Views for transition from
MPLS to SD-WAN
Multiple tools monitoring the
legacy MPLS and new SD-WAN
creating silos of data
Additional complexity can
turn a minor issue in a major one
Unable to measure the utilization of legacy
WAN and SD-WAN as a single system to
make decisions regarding budget and cost
optimization
Unable to measure effectiveness of new
SD-WAN investment

“ “This initiative plays a major part in our overall enterprise
digital transformation strategy
Challenge
Enterprise clients and
Verizon operations require an
end-to-end view of services
spanning the physical and
virtual network
Solution
Analyze performance of the
hybrid WAN to help enhance
delivery of applications to users
Correlate disparate metrics into a
single-services view spanning the
SD WAN, application performance
and the supporting infrastructure
SD-WAN
Provide speed to
intelligence at scale
across the global
enterprise footprint
