UMBRA’s Value Proposition
Through extensions of our patented Global Virtual Network; the Secure Network Optimization Service, UMBRA is redefining connectivity through proprietary technology solutions at reasonable CAPEX without the need to write-off past investments all while maintaining low ongoing operational costs.
·UMBRA provides a Market-changing delivery of SD-WAN subscription service through elimination of the traditional network router.
·Global 1000 CIOs, VPs of IT infrastructure use high cost, home-grown solutions based on Cisco networking or other high cost/high maintenance solutions to address packet loss from HQ datacenter to regional branch office.
·Most SD-WAN vendors use traditional routers to create and update routing tables, aggregate IP addresses and route packets, not really addressing the challenges faced, but masking them though heavy compression, etc.
·SD-WAN vendors overlay router management in router or cloud to route packets using routing tables and typical router technology…but the router itself is not inherently dynamic enough, fast enough or secure enough, because its feedback loop is inherently weak through the entire packet route end-to-end.
