People’s Bank partnered with Hayleys Fentons ICT for a transformative SD-WAN project. This initiative covered 375 customer contact points across Sri Lanka, becoming the largest SD-WAN installation within the financial sector in the country.
Chief Information Officer of People’s Bank, Dhammika Dasa said, “The SD-WAN project not only optimises our network performance but also enables us to provide island-wide support within 2 hours via support centres.”
Key features of the deployment include a central SD-WAN Hub at People’s Bank’s head office in Colombo 2, fortified with Redundancy Disaster Recovery (DR) measures to ensure uninterrupted service.
Managing Director of Hayleys Fentons, Hasith Prematillake said, “Our team took proactive measures for the network’s resilience by installing a secondary internet connection for backup purposes. The successful deployment is a testament to the technological prowess and dedication of the Fentons ICT team.”
SD-WAN, a cutting-edge networking technology, empowers organisations to securely connect users, applications, and data across multiple locations, enhancing speed, safety, and flexibility in the process.
General Manager of Hayleys Fentons ICT, Yoosoof Ihthisham said that their solution not only modernised the bank’s network infrastructure but also equipped them with tools to enhance security, agility, and cost-effectiveness.
