Customer Challenges

CypressTel identified the problems the financial institution was facing and understood the customer's needs. The bank was facing challenges such as slow network, difficult operation and maintenance, chaotic network security management, and resource wastage. Digital transformation and upgrading were urgently needed.

CypressTel coordinated a team of technical consultants to visit the project site and after multiple discussions, requirements analysis, and technical diagnosis, the following problems were identified:

1. High network quality was needed for online business transactions.

2. High bandwidth requirements and network continuity were needed for increased usage of cloud access.

3. Complex business requirements required a flexible network architecture.

4. Diverse requirements for branch sites due to global distribution of sites and multiple network connections.

5. Insufficient operation and maintenance capacity leading to complex operation and maintenance with high workload.

6. Low overall network visualization and lack of unified management.

Solution Deployment

To address these issues, CypressTel provided a customized "SD-WAN overall solution" to the financial institution, which utilized the advantages of SD-WAN. The solution helped to improve network application experience and operational efficiency while reducing enterprise network deployment costs.
