Orange Business Services Builds ‘One-Stop Shop’ for SD-WAN

Orange Business Services has been dipping its toes into SD-WAN since 2016. But as the service provider expands its offerings it is looking to create a “one-stop shop” for SD-WAN, according to John Isch, the director of the network and voice practice in North America for Orange Business.Orange currently offers its SD-WAN, which it calls Flexible SD-WAN, through both Cisco-Viptela technology and Riverbed’s SteelConnect technology. Orange integrates the SD-WAN with what it calls vendor managed internet (VMI) as well as an array of security components. In addition, the provider can resell managed internet services in around 120 countries.
