Prisma SD-WAN Greenfield Deployment
"""The Prisma SD-WAN greenfield CloudFormation template will deploy and configure the following:
- A new VPC
- 1 private and 1 public subnet
- An Internet Gateway
- Route tables associated with each subnet
- The public subnet has a default route to the new Internet Gateway
- A single elastic IP to be assigned to the Prisma SD-WAN instance interface in the public subnet
- 2 security groups, one for the Prisma SD-WAN interface in the public subnet and one for the Prisma SD-WAN interfaces in the private subnet
- A Prisma SD-WAN EC2 instance with the appropriate associations to the elastic IP, security groups, subnets, and user supplied meta-data to register the ION to the customer's portal"""
CloudFormation Template (CFT)
AWS CloudFormation templates are JSON or YAML-formatted text files that simplify provisioning and management on AWS. The templates describe the service or application architecture you want to deploy, and AWS CloudFormation uses those templates to provision and configure the required services (such as Amazon EC2 instances or Amazon RDS DB instances). The deployed application and associated resources are called a "stack."

My Experience with Prisma SD-WAN
Reviewed on Oct 15, 2024
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
The centralized cloud management is incredibly intuitive, allowing real-time monitoring and control of the entire network from a single interface. The application-aware routing is also highly effective in optimizing traffic based on priority, ensuring that critical apps get the bandwidth they need, which significantly boosts performance without manual adjustments.
What do you dislike about the product?
While Prisma SD-WAN has a lot to offer, the initial setup can be a bit complex, especially for organizations unfamiliar with SD-WAN solutions. Additionally, the cost can be higher compared to some other SD-WAN options, making it more suitable for larger enterprises rather than smaller businesses with tighter budgets. Lastly, there can be a learning curve for users transitioning from traditional WAN management systems to a cloud-based SD-WAN approach.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Prisma SD-WAN solves several key challenges around network complexity, performance, and security. It simplifies managing a distributed network by providing centralized control, allowing us to easily monitor and configure branches from one platform. This has reduced the time and effort required for network management, making our operations much more efficient.
