Description

The digital needs of enterprises have resulted in the assessment of current enterprise network architecture and investments toward modernizing the network. Software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) has become an essential component of the enterprise network to support robust connectivity requirements and simplify WAN management.Communications SPs and managed SPs can differentiate their managed SD-WAN offering by keeping in mind the following:As enterprises use a variety of underlay mix, it becomes essential to offer enterprise-grade connectivity, especially when using the public internet, home broadband, or cellular networks. Leveraging service capabilities, such as server-level agreement (SLA)-based performance and distributed denial of service (DDoS), will reduce unpredictability of network connectivity.Integration of network and security is another key area of interest for enterprises. In most organizations, the decision makers for networks and security are different, and SPs must take a consultative approach to link these functions to uphold the security requirements of the enterprise. Global footprint expansion to cater to the needs of enterprises that have presence across geographies. Expansion of the multivendor portfolio not just for SD-WAN but also for secure access service edge (SASE) services and enterprises prefer to have a multi-vendor solution for both SD-WAN and SASE to use the best of the breed solutions that align with their goals. Improvement of visibility and observability by consolidating multiple portals to offer a unified single-pane solution to enterprises to better manage multivendor environments. This IDC study provides a market forecast including historical for the managed software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) market from 2024 to 2029 across Asia/Pacific (excluding Japan and China) (APEJC).“Enterprises are moving toward SD-WAN to make connectivity more secure, scalable, and flexible while trying to address the growing demand for bandwidth to handle huge data workloads. Enterprises have higher expectations from managed SD-WAN SPs, in terms of managing operational costs to improve savings, bridge technical gaps for deployments, and future-proof their enterprise networks,” says Swathi Arunaa, senior research analyst, IDC Asia/Pacific Telecom and IoT Practice.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
