I see pfSense playing two possible roles the SD-WAN. The first is customer-centric, and will allow pfSense edge devices to connect to a third-party SD-WAN service or one provided by Netgate itself. The other is vendor-centric, and will allow SD-WAN vendors to use pfSense for their Point-of-Presence software when building the geographically distributed network for SD-WAN traffic optimization.
Both are smart strategies and well within your core competency. As long as you're not building your own SD-WAN service you're golden.

Running our own SD-WAN service seems a lot like opening a cute little coffee shop: A fine way to spend a lot of money with no result. There is a third option, which is also customer-centric: Allow the customer to run their own SD-WAN.
