The Business of Connecting - WAN Economics: Carrier Rates and SD-WAN - Seguridad Mania.com - España y América Latina

The WAN is the central nervous system of the enterprise, and is in a period of massive change: integration of cloud resources into the IT service portfolio and migration of a significant portion of the enterprise’s work and data to the cloud; rapid increase in mobile devices as work platforms; expansion of Internet of Things deployments; and new WAN paradigms, especially SD-WAN. All of this puts renewed focus on the economics of wide-area networking: How much does it cost to connect a site to a WAN? What technologies are easiest, fastest, best performing? Which vendors provide the best technology, service, and value? The Nemertes 2018-19 WAN Economics Research study uncovers current data on: • Last-mile circuit costs • MPLS, Ethernet, 4G, and Internet service costs • Ratings for connectivity providers and ranking their ability to deliver, and deliver on time • SD-WAN platform costs – capital, implementation, operation • SD-WAN adoption and vendor ratings ...and more! We look forward to sharing this information with you.
