After six months of development, Cisco’s Viptela SD-WAN will be available on Megaport’s new virtual edge platform, Megaport Virtual Edge (MVE.)
The collaboration is notable on several fronts. For Cisco, the partnership with Megaport gives its customers the option of using their own cloud interconnects. It’s also Cisco’s first SD-WAN collaboration with a software-defined cloud Interconnects (SDCI) company, but more will follow.
For Megaport, hosting a virtualized network infrastructure across its software-defined network via MVE enables customers to quickly spin up edge services across the globe at cloud scale by using automation.
