Overview
In an ever-connected world of rich-media applications sprawling across public and private clouds, enterprises today need next-gen fluidic connectivity with flexible transport options. Most enterprises today are starting their digitization and branch-to-cloud journey by leveraging intelligent WAN edge and global backbone connectivity, through a software-defined network model which provides a future-ready digital experience and greater business agility.
HCLTech’s Transport Independent Site (TIS) is a future-proof and cloud-ready SD-WAN framework that dynamically routes and intelligently connects the global WAN infrastructure of the enterprise, making it truly transport agnostic. The TIS’ Business-first and Experience-centric architecture enables centralized control, cloud-management, AIOps, global network automation and orchestration, advanced analytics, network security, and carrier-neutral aggregation, through an easy to consume Pay-As-You-Go service model. Being an open platform, the uCPE-led intelligent branch connects to virtual SD-WAN at the edge and enables AIOps, as well as network-on-demand in a way that enables end-to-end service chaining, traffic steering, and branch-to-cloud WAN connectivity.
Whether it's a high-speed cloud service provider (CSP) backbone or a dedicated network service node (NSN), TIS enables multi-domain policy integration with a zero-trust network, providing connectivity to access workloads based on context (identity, device etc.). This network-orchestrated and automated cloud on-ramp SD-WAN, accelerates content and application delivery, enabling high performance, simplifying scalability, increasing reliability and improving resiliency.

Intelligent Branch
Intelligent Branch
HCLTech’s Intelligent Branch is based on a uCPE open platform led by network function virtualization (NFV) that enables on-demand network and flexible SD-WAN fabric, expanding the range by bringing VNF and firewall hosted in a single platform. Through NFV, the platform is orchestrated with AIOps, end-to-end service chaining, traffic steering and self-aware network operations. Intelligent branch delivers secured, low-latency, high-speed performance that not only brings cost savings by using x86 hardware but also improves efficiency through faster product development and HCLTech’ AIOps integration.

SmartNet
This is a high-speed CSP backbone network enabling businesses to connect from any location around the world. It supports clamp-on cloud hosting of NFV, such as SD-WAN capabilities, directly on CSP global cloud WAN network points of presence. It fulfills ‘cloud-delivered branch’ promise for the enterprises.

UltraNet
This is a dedicated and private global interconnection ecosystem comprising co-hosting providers and network service nodes, enabling a backbone with local access to the world’s leading public CSPs, decongesting connectivity and simplifying carrier neutrality. It offers quick interconnects to the widest range of mobile carriers, ISPs, and internet exchanges with lowest possible latency, real time visibility, and secure cross-connects. It ensures virtual network services, optimized for instant deployment and interconnection.

Network Security
Future-proofing the SD-WAN deployments and dynamic network-security needs of digital enterprises by using SASE-based “software-defined” network security policies with an infinitely tailorable network fabric WAN is crucial. Precisely specifying the level of performance, reliability, and security of every network session and delivering zero-trust secure access, evolving to identity-based policy implementation based on real-time analytics and cloud appropriation is possible.
