Software-defined wide area networking (SD-WAN) emerged in 2014 as a way to help organizations embrace the cloud and quickly became a hot commodity. As years passed new technologies like secure access service edge (SASE) and generative artificial intelligence (genAI) burst onto the scene, and SD-WAN has fallen out of the industry limelight.
There are baseline security and connectivity requirements for any SD-WAN service, and then there are optional, emerging product capabilities that indicate how the market is maturing and customer requirements are expanding. There’s a trend toward AI capabilities that enable networking decisions to be made with little or no human intervention.
The VPN market will hit $70 billion by 2026, according to market research and management consulting company Global Market Insights. In an April blog AT&T pointed to a 700% increase in connections to its cloud-based SD-WAN Static Network Based (ANIRA) VPN service. To read this article in full, please click here
Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) is a network architecture that combines software-defined wide area networking (SD-WAN ) and security functionality into a unified cloud service that promises simplified WAN deployments, improved efficiency and security, and application-specific bandwidth policies. billion by 2025. What is SASE?
92% of IT decision-makers polled by Masergy and Altman Solon say they plan to adopt SD-WAN by 2026, and more than half plan to use a hybrid public/private model.
HPE customers who were hoping for an Ops platform that would control server, storage, and networking using fully natural language commands are going to have to stick with GreenLake for now or wait until probably 2026 at the earliest, he said.
Traditional enterprise wide area networks, or WANs were designed primarily to connect remote branch offices directly to the data center. More importantly, WANs lack the flexibility and scalability that digital business requires. More importantly, WANs lack the flexibility and scalability that digital business requires.
Today, convergence is happening with SASE, which converges cloud-delivered security and networking, as well as Secure SD-WAN, zero trust network access (ZTNA), network access control (NAC), secure access points, and secure switches. We predict that the convergence of networking and security will continue to expand to more areas.
By 2026, at least 45% of enterprises will use managed SASE services—an increase of three times from early 2023,” Gartner said in its report, How t o Choose Between Managed SASE Services. (Check out Network World’s SASE buyer’s guide.)
In fact, in a recent IDC study , 60% of CIOs stated they are already planning to modify their operating model to manage value, agility, and risk by 2026. For example, with a cloud-managed SD-WAN, a company can establish connectivity and security in about an hour.
Network and infrastructure roles continue to shift as enterprises adopt technologies such as AI-driven network operations , multicloud networking, zero trust network access ( ZTNA ), and SD-WAN. trillion in delays, quality issues, and revenue loss.
2025-2026 podra ser un punto de inflexin en el que las organizaciones pasen de la carrera hacia la IA generativa a un enfoque ms planificado, aprendiendo de sus errores anteriores y alinendose estrechamente con los resultados empresariales. Adems, la nube hbrida tambin tiene un componente de red y una complejidad de gestin.
