Ipanema Technologies enhances its Dynamic Hybrid Networking management solution

Ipanema Technologies has introduced the new release of DWS, its Dynamic WAN Selection Solution (DWS). This new solution offers application performance guarantee, together with VPN tunneling and OS-level firewall capabilities, all in a single box, which removes the need for enterprises to have additional firewall devices at every branch of their organization.

With the new release of its DWS, Ipanema offers the most comprehensive solution to guarantee application performance on large and complex hybrid deployments.
Ipanema’s Dynamic Hybrid Networking solution automatically chooses the best network access for each application flow, taking into account the actual end-to-end conditions of the entire hybrid network - capacity, availability and quality - in order to maximize the end-user experience and optimize the usage of each available path. Natively integrated with Ipanema’s Application Visibility, Control and WAN Optimization, DWS allows enterprises to successfully regain control and protect their application performance across hybrid networks.

The enhancement of Ipanema’s Dynamic Networking Solution with additional VPN tunneling and OS-level firewall capabilities will offer the following benefits:
· Enable Ipanema devices (IP engines) to establish VPN tunnels via the Internet, towards remote data centers that have VPN concentrators (public or private) or web security gateways such as Zscaler
· When combined with Zscaler, the need for an additional firewall device in every branch is eliminated
· The provision of these VPN services is managed via dedicated configuration screens in the SALSA central management platform
