WITH UNSTABLE NETWORK infrastructure affecting business efficiency, Mafatlal Industries’ adoption of SD WAN solutions has resulted in significant cost savings and increased business efficiency.
Indian textile major,Mafatlal Industries has marked over 30 per cent of cost savings following the company’s IT infrastructure revamping efforts. Mafatlal Industries’ growth led to the need to expand its IT setup as well. This included implementing an ERP system and centralizing the varied functions across different locations. As all the IT systems and the various functions became centralized, the company felt the need for having a strong and dependable networking infrastructure in place. As part of its networking infrastructure, the company already had a primary MPLS internet link of 10 mbps in place. However, in order to ensure a reliable network and one that would not get impacted by any downtime to the primary link, it needed to build in redundancy.
Overall, the SD WAN technology met the company’s key criterion of providing a redundant network, reliable connectivity. As part of its vendor evaluation process, Mafatlal shortlisted SD WAN solutions from Citrix and other OEMs. The company started its implementation of Citrix Netscaler SD WAN in January 2017 and went live by May 2017.
