DISH Network Technologies: Building a broadcast network utilizing AWS CloudWAN

This article details how DISH Network Technologies transformed its network infrastructure using AWS CloudWAN, addressing significant connectivity and scalability challenges in their hybrid cloud environment.

• Previous network relied on complex mesh of IPSec tunnels with poor scalability and management
• AWS CloudWAN enabled a hub-and-spoke network architecture with centralized management
• Implemented network segmentation between production/non-production environments
• Achieved full network automation through infrastructure-as-code and CI/CD pipelines
• Created separate connectivity paths for on-premises data centers and AWS cloud networks

The solution provides DISH with a more scalable, secure, and manageable network infrastructure, enabling easier expansion and more efficient operations across their hybrid cloud environment.
