Network Engineering and Operations in the Multi-Cloud Era
Abstract: Enterprises today are leveraging the cloud more than ever before, building hybrid and multi-cloud architectures and adopting dozens, if not hundreds, of software as a service applications. Legacy networks are not designed to support the migration of so many applications to external cloud environments. Neither do network infrastructure teams have proven processes and tools to support a new cloud-enabling network. This market research draws on survey data and one-on-one interviews with IT professionals to understand how network engineering and operations teams are transforming themselves to support enterprise cloud strategies. It identifies key technology requirements for hybrid and multi-cloud networking, emerging tool strategies, and industry challenges. |
