  • The AI and Automation Mandate for SD-WAN

    In pursuit of their secure network connectivity goal, networking teams are using SD-WAN technology to support highly distributed IT environments. However, any efficiency gained from this technology can quickly be overshadowed by the massive burden of overseeing hundreds to potentially hundreds of thousands of sites in enterprise and even midmarket organizations. Recent research by TechTarget’s Enterprise Strategy Group shows that networking professionals consider artificial intelligence (AI) and automation crucial to relieving the burden of this situation while ensuring cybersecurity remains a priority.

  • Cloud Detection and Response

    Increasingly dynamic cloud environments are presenting visibility challenges for security. Indeed, the majority of organizations claim that lack of access to physical networks, the dynamic nature of cloud-native applications, and elastic cloud infrastructure create blind spots, making security monitoring challenging. Additionally, nearly all organizations experienced a cloud security incident in the last year, which can result in application downtime, unauthorized access, data loss, and compliance fines.

  • Ransomware is widely considered a critical and existential threat to the viability of any business. Given the high frequency of attacks and the impacts of successful ones such as data loss, many organizations are left with damages that have an effect well beyond IT. Attackers often undermine key infrastructure components and expose significant gaps, so IT leaders must focus on protecting and further leveraging their backup and recovery infrastructure to remove risk and minimize business impact.

  • For most organizations, data is no longer only one of many elements that contribute to the success of business initiatives. On the contrary, data increasingly is the business, wielding formidable influence and power across numerous factors, including the ability to rapidly make informed business decisions. In turn, organizations are investing significant resources into the development of DataOps strategies that formalize parts and processes inherent to the data pipeline and help to build collaboration between stakeholders across the ecosystem. Data-centric challenges are extensive within any team connected to the organization’s data pipeline, including data producers, engineers, developers, and users. These challenges ultimately drive the adoption and use of technologies and processes designed to satisfy both common and unique data requirements.

    To examine the state of DataOps in today’s organizations, Enterprise Strategy Group surveyed 361 data professionals in North America (US and Canada) involved with modern data and analytics tooling, technology, and processes.
