U.S. Companies'' SDN Adoption Grows With Cloud Migration
As enterprises shift IT and networks into the cloud, demand for software-defined networking products and services are on the rise, ISG Provider Lens™ report says U.S. enterprises, which spearheaded the global migration to software-defined networking (SDN), continue to adopt these enabling technologies as they move more resources to the cloud, according to a new research report published today by Information Services Group ( ISG ) (Nasdaq: III ), a leading global technology research and advisory firm. The 2022 ISG Provider Lens™ Network — Software Defined Solutions and Services report for the U.S. finds that SDN is often fundamental to other elements of IT modernization, including cloudification, mobility, intelligent edge infrastructure and emerging technologies such as AI, IoT, automation and collaboration. "As U.S. companies began to embrace the cloud, SDN was there to make that transition faster and less risky," said Dieter Thompson, president, ISG Network Advisory Services. "SDN caught fire as an ideal use for it emerged." SD-WAN technology, which revolutionized mobile, remote and branch networking by automating and standardizing hybrid connectivity, is now becoming increasingly cloud-centric as enterprises rely on cloud-based SaaS for more applications, ISG says.
