What are QOS Policies and how do they translate to business applications?
QOS policies are a compiled set of instructions that define how networking devices should prioritize and forward network traffic. Business applications can suffer tremendously when combined with other traffic types. In a best-effort networking environment, QOS can truly be appreciated when Business Applications compete with non-business downloads, or a company’s CRM application is battling the morning rush of web browsing. For the Service Provider, the ability to offer premium services based on flexible quality levels that are adaptive to the changing demands of users can prove to be the competitive edge needed.
