EyeCare Partners SD-WAN Implementation Case Study

This case study documents the implementation of VMware SD-WAN by EyeCare Partners, a healthcare provider managing over 450 sites across the U.S. The organization faced challenges in scaling its traditional network architecture, which became costly and complex as it doubled its number of practices. To address these issues, EyeCare Partners evaluated various SD-WAN solutions and ultimately selected VMware SD-WAN for its agility and efficiency. The deployment plan included a stateful firewall and security features for each office, ensuring compliance with healthcare regulations. As of now, over 200 offices have been equipped with VMware SD-WAN, resulting in reduced deployment times and increased flexibility in managing data circuits. The partnership with Meriplex for managing the SD-WAN environment has improved troubleshooting and monitoring capabilities, leading to a more streamlined network infrastructure. The case study highlights the significant benefits realized by EyeCare Partners through this implementation, including enhanced performance and reduced complexity in their network operations.
