Citrix SD-WAN provides a secure SD-WAN solution that optimizes application traffic to deliver the best performance for SaaS, cloud applications, and virtual apps \& desktops in the data center and at branch offices. Citrix SD-WAN is the software-defined wide area network (WAN) that delivers what a traditional MPLS solution cannot.
