    "With our previous MPLS setup, we had no visibility or control; adding a new branch or making a simple configuration would take weeks or even months. Orixcom Managed Cisco SD-WAN and CloudConnect solution changed that completely. We now have full visibility, faster performance, and a highly responsive network that truly supports our cloud-first goals."

    Challenges

    BMTC’s legacy network relied heavily on MPLS and IPSec tunnels to connect its branches to headquarters. This setup presented several challenges: 

    • High Costs: MPLS links were expensive, especially considering the low bandwidth requirements (~2–3 Mbps) for accessing centralised services like email. 
    • Limited Network Visibility and Control: Network changes were slow and required significant coordination with service providers. 
    • Scalability Issues: Adding new branches could take months due to the complexity of MPLS provisioning. 
    • Cloud Migration Complexity: As BMTC began migrating services from on-premises infrastructure to Microsoft Azure, they needed seamless, secure connectivity between branches, HQ, and the cloud. 

    Solution

    Orixcom proposed a tailored solution combining Managed Cisco SD-WAN and CloudConnect services, for: 

    • Dynamic path selection and application-aware routing across hybrid connections. 
    • Centralised SD-WAN orchestration and real-time network visibility. 
    • Seamless access to Azure-hosted services from both HQ and branches.
    • Seamless integration with existing infrastructure, ensuring zero business disruption. 

    Outcomes and ROI

    • 80% cost savings by eliminating MPLS and optimising internet usage.
    • 18 sites connected with SD-WAN, with new branches onboarded within hours.
    • Seamless cloud access to their Azure resources through Equinix.
