New #SD-WAN service by #MushroomNetworks allows partners to customize WANs Mushroom Networks, a privately held company based in San Diego, Calif., delivered a new spin on software-defined wide area networking (SD-WAN) on Tuesday, which enables service providers to tailor WANs to fit each customers’ needs. Software-defined networking was originally developed for large data centers that were having difficulties dealing with changes in traffic flows. These traffic flows would increase demand for specific resources, which couldn’t be fulfilled by the networking infrastructure at the time. Consequently, service providers either had to grow or ‘scale’ the infrastructure to accommodate applications running on it, which is expensive, or design the infrastructure to reconfigure itself in response to changes in traffic flows.
