Summary
In this chapter, we covered the downside to the manual operation of SASE, the benefit of templates, effective API integration, how to orchestrate SASE in an effective to-scale model, and the benefits of automation.
By orchestrating and automating the SASE solution, we reduce the educational requirements required to operate and scale SASE. The acceleration of complex technical solutions will not slow down in the future. As technology leaders, we must leverage the disaggregation of solution components to create a modular service substitution approach. This method of breaking down the solution into smaller pieces and applying strict orchestration policies makes the whole solution easier for the AIOps platform to operate.
In the next chapter, Chapter 5, SASE SD-WAN, we will be detailing the relationship between SD-WAN and SASE with sections on the SD-What, SD-Why, SD-How, SD-When, and SD-SASE that speaks to the effective integrated solution.
