SD-WAN is one of the fast-emerging technologies set to play an important role in establishing a new paradigm for value creation in the digital age.

The constant flood of new, often unmanaged devices pervading corporate networks means traditional security architecture is at the point of collapse.

Network managers and administrators are seeing big business benefits associated with managing all their corporate network assets from one cloud-based solution.

Security information and event management solutions are among the costliest and most likely to be beyond the budgets of many SMEs.

The evolution of SD-WAN will have a direct influence on improvements in artificial intelligence, machine learning and data analytics going forward.

With rapidly increasing numbers of SD-WAN solutions on the market, selecting an appropriate, sophisticated SD-WAN package is becoming challenging.

With over 40 vendors competing for a slice of an increasingly lucrative pie, some SD-WAN offerings are in danger of being promoted beyond their capabilities.

Many are unaware of the scale of the SD-WAN phenomenon and are in danger of missing out on monetisation opportunities.

New IT vendors join established but progressive-thinking organisations in the battle for market share in the autonomous networking arena.

In the race to 5G networks, choosing the wrong horse to back could prove disastrous.

The latest technology innovations assist in the management of the delicate balance between environmental, economic and societal needs.

While the enterprise data centre isn't following the dodo bird into extinction, there is a need for change, modernising and "reimagination".
