These complexities often lead to IT outages that disrupt operations, delay productions, and lead to revenue losses.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">According to internal insighting, 48 percent of manufacturers have experienced unplanned downtime in their critical applications last year, resulting in a 20 percent revenue loss.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Globe Business, the enterprise information and communications technology (ICT) arm of Globe Telecom, is offering solutions to address these problems through SD-WAN which simplifies the way enterprises and growing businesses manage and expand their corporate network. SD-WAN utilizes a plug-and-play device leveraging on cloud-based technology that can be easily installed and configured as long as there is fixed broadband connectivity.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cAt Globe Business, we believe the best way to solve a problem is to prevent it. Globe SD-WAN understands the intricacies of IT applications and we deliver the business solutions that will enable manufacturers to cope with the challenges of maintaining connectivity of their operations all the time,\u201d says Peter Maquera, Globe SVP for Enterprise Group.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">For instance, with the help of SD-WAN technology, the company\u2019s IT personnel will be able to pinpoint non-mission critical activities such as video conference calls and live video streaming\u2014which are consuming most of the corporate bandwidth.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Likewise, through SD-WAN, IT personnel can reroute these non-mission critical applications traffic to the company\u2019s broadband network so as to avoid over-utilization of the corporate data network.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Utilizing SD-WAN for non-mission critical activities will help free up the corporate network\u2019s bandwidth, thereby ensuring that all operations at the manufacturing company such as purchasing inventories, processing raw materials into finished products, packaging and delivery of these products will run smoothly.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cGlobe SD-WAN understands how to orchestrate and maximize business application performance to ensure business continuity. When applied to the manufacturing industry, this will help enhance their competitive edge in the local and global markets, expand their market share abroad, generate more employment and contribute to the expansion of the economy,\u201d said Maquera.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Globe Business introduced SD-WAN technology in the Philippines in February. It is the latest in a series of innovative and game-changing solutions that will allow business enterprises to maximize the utilization of their corporate data network.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Utilizing SD-WAN for non-mission critical activities will help free up the corporate network\u2019s bandwidth, thereby ensuring that all operations at the manufacturing company such as purchasing inventories, processing raw materials into finished products, packaging and delivery of these products will run smoothly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":27817,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[212,5938,96,4825],"class_list":["post-31579","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-headlines","tag-globe","tag-globe-software-defined-wide-area-network","tag-technology","tag-wan"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.upgrademag.com\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31579","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.upgrademag.com\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.upgrademag.com\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.upgrademag.com\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.upgrademag.com\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=31579"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/www.upgrademag.com\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31579\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.upgrademag.com\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/27817"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.upgrademag.com\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=31579"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.upgrademag.com\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=31579"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.upgrademag.com\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=31579"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
