WAN Manager Podcast 307: The WAN Managers Have Spoken (For Now)

We've crunched the numbers from our survey of WAN managers in 2021 and our new analysis is ready and waiting.

What'd we find? To start, the extended effects of COVID-related remote work have accelerated WAN trends like migration to the cloud, SD-WAN adoption, and incorporating alternative access technologies into the underlay.

Network managers at large multinational corporations are now faced with accommodating a remote-friendly, bring-your-own-device, work-from-anywhere environment. Many will likely be rethinking their network architecture in the coming years, moving closer to internet-first networks and further away from MPLS.

Greg welcomes TeleGeography Senior Analyst Elizabeth Thorne back to the pod to break it all down.

The WAN Manager Podcast is now TeleGeography Explains the Internet. Hosted by Greg Bryan.
