Technology Planning:
Network Connectivity
The Process of Improving Your Networking Environment
Organizations must be able to provide the right level of network connectivity to remote, hybrid and in-office users. Achieving this goal requires a comprehensive approach to planning the stages of your technology journey.
Mapping Your Network Connectivity Journey
PHASE 1
Preparation
Engage in a workshop to identify and match your business requirements to technical solution capabilities.
- Engage in a workshop to identify and match your business requirements to technical solution capabilities.
- Identify technical solution capabilities that satisfy those goals.
- Create a formal report describing which solutions fit your needs.
PHASE 2
Assessment
Assessments help ensure there are no surprises during deployment. Which assessment you choose depends on where you are in your solution purchasing cycle.
- A full-blown network assessment can help you identify what you have and how to potentially improve it.
- If you’ve already made a purchase decision, you may simply want a Keentek engineer to help you plan out a deployment that includes a low-level design.
PHASE 3
Implementation and Adoption
First, roll out your new solution. Then, consider deployment enhancements.
- Pilot part of your solution to validate changes.
- Roll out remaining devices or locations.
- Establish an ongoing cadence with Keentek engineers to help determine if enhancements are recommended.
- Consider additional adoption services to assist with ongoing refinements.
Connectivity Features
Keentek can provide a range of solutions to mitigate the causes of a connectivity outage. This could be something as simple as a backup Broadband circuit that can kick in with a reduced speed if the primary Fiber should fail. At the other end of the scale, we can offer diverse Fiber links from two separate carriers, taking different routes into your site and terminating on separate hardware.
Managed Routers
All of our WAN and Internet Access services are delivered with managed routers on the customers site. Keentek will configure, deliver and install a device with each access circuit when it is commissioned and then proactively monitor for hardware or circuit faults during the life of the service.
Firewall & Security
All of our WAN and Internet Access customer benefit from basic firewall protection from within our network. If required, this can be upgraded to a dedicated virtual or physical firewall allowing for full customisation of networking rules and security policies.
Virtual Service Networks
A Keentek WAN can be used to replace multiple legacy physical circuits, delivering separate services, such as a private network, Internet access and direct Cloud access, over a common physical access network.
Flexible WAN Architecture
WAN customers can choose a Hub-and-Spoke design, where all branch sites communicate with a central hub, or an Any-to-Any design, where every site is connected to every other. They can mix both options for different types of sites or even enable Internet VPN to allow external sites to gain access.
