Versa SD-WAN Solution Use Case for Satellite ISPs

whitePaper | July 19, 2022

Satellite networks offer their customers several advantages over other types of connectivity. They are easily deployed, reliable, and allow a wide degree of mobility, making them a perfect fit for Disaster Recovery Plans (DRP). They are an essential asset in places where other connectivity methods are not available, such as oil rigs, vessels, or even planes. However, they have several characteristics that make them harder to manage when compared to other kinds of networks. This document will discuss those challenges and explore how the Versa Operating System (VOS™) can help you extract better performance out of your Satellite links.

The Industrial Internet of Things Networking Framework

whitePaper | August 3, 2022

The Internet of Things (IoT) fuses the digital realm with the real-world of objects and places and enables digital twins of them. These technologies drive innovation in application areas such as manufacturing, utilities, transportation, logistics and smart cities.
