Diving into Secure Access Service Edge

Overview of this book

The SASE concept was coined by Gartner after seeing a pattern emerge in cloud and SD-WAN projects where full security integration was needed. The market behavior lately has sparked something like a "space race" for all technology manufacturers and cloud service providers to offer a "SASE" solution. The current training available in the market is minimal and manufacturer-oriented, with new services being released every few weeks. Professional architects and engineers trying to implement SASE need to take a manufacturer-neutral approach. This guide provides a foundation for understanding SASE, but it also has a lasting impact because it not only addresses the problems that existed at the time of publication, but also provides a continual learning approach to successfully lead in a market that evolves every few weeks. Technology teams need a tool that provides a model to keep up with new information as it becomes available and stay ahead of market hype. With this book, you’ll learn about crucial models for SASE success in designing, building, deploying, and supporting operations to ensure the most positive user experience (UX). In addition to SASE, you’ll gain insight into SD-WAN design, DevOps, zero trust, and next-generation technical education methods.

Learn Timing

Leveraging the five W’s is always a wonderful place to start with any learning model. The five W’s for those who are unfamiliar are Who, What, Why, Where, and When. We often unofficially add a qualifier of How or How much to the mix, but it does not start with W and, therefore, is left out sometimes. In this section, we talk about when. The correct answer is always! The timeline is within six weeks of every relevant software release.

Over time, as your new learning model becomes more familiar to you, it can be applied to any area of your life or organization. Initially, leverage the model when attempting to use an innovative technology that is either undocumented, under-documented, or has inadequate training available. This model is to create a way of learning something without the necessary training program available for success.

Timing in this case stands for just-in-time. There is an entire logistical science for just-in-time logistics. The scientific...
