  • Private 5G: Inside the Progress and Opportunity

    ·

    Jim Frey

    As the rise of data users continues alongside the rapid proliferation of devices connected to enterprise networks, organizations are seeking ways to modernize their networks. Although advances with Wi-Fi have helped to support more demanding requirements in recent years, organizations are increasingly deploying private 5G networks alongside—or even in place of—traditional Wi-Fi installations. TechTarget’s Enterprise Strategy Group recently surveyed IT professionals involved with cellular or wireless technology and processes to gain insights into these trends.

    Jim Frey

    As the rise of data users continues alongside the rapid proliferation of devices connected to enterprise networks, organizations are seeking ways to modernize their networks. Although advances with Wi-Fi have helped to support more demanding requirements in recent years, organizations are increasingly deploying private 5G networks alongside—or even in place of—traditional Wi-Fi installations. The potential benefits of private 5G are vast, ranging from high performance, low latency, and extensive scalability to stronger security, customized deployment and control, and better support for emerging compliance and regulatory requirements.

    However, these potential benefits can come at the expense of numerous challenges as this technology shifts from nascency to the early stages of maturity. To gain further insights into these trends, TechTarget’s Enterprise Strategy Group surveyed 380 network IT professionals involved with cellular or wireless technology and processes at organizations in North America (US and Canada).

  • The Role of AI and Automation in Networking

    ·

    Jim Frey

    Organizations depend on the network environment to deliver highly available and secure connectivity to every application, location, and employee. However, network operations teams now have exponentially more network connections, endpoints, and data traversing the network to contend with. Operations teams struggle to collect all the network data, correlate it with context, and act decisively to resolve issues that arise. As a result, they need to take advantage of the intelligence provided by AI and the ability to automate more than just initial configurations. TechTarget’s Enterprise Strategy Group recently surveyed network professionals involved with network AI and automation technology and processes to gain insights into these trends.

  • The Role of AI and Automation in Networking

    ·

    Jim Frey

    Applications are deployed across data centers, multiple public cloud services, and numerous edge locations. Hybrid work initiatives mean employees are increasingly connecting to these applications from the office, their home, and other remote locations. Regardless of where they are, employees expect to be productive and have a positive experience. Likewise, organizations depend on the network environment to deliver highly available and secure connectivity to every application, location, and employee. However, network operations teams now have exponentially more network connections, endpoints, and data traversing the network to contend with.

    Operations teams struggle to collect all the network data, correlate it with context, and act decisively to resolve issues that arise. As a result, organizations need to take advantage of the intelligence provided by AI and the ability to automate more than just initial configurations. Importantly, they’ll need to determine how long it will take for operations teams to become comfortable with and trust these technologies as well as the implications of generative AI for network operations.

    To gain further insight into these trends, Enterprise Strategy Group surveyed 362 network professionals at organizations in North America (US and Canada) involved with network AI and automation technology and processes.

  • Organizations Should Prioritize VPN Replacement With Zero-trust Network Access

    ·

    John Grady

    Zero-trust network access (ZTNA) is an important supporting component of zero-trust strategies that allows users to securely connect to the infrastructure, applications, and services they need to do their jobs from anywhere. Recent research by TechTarget’s Enterprise Strategy Group revealed some interesting findings when it comes to how this approach is stacking up to the technology that was previously predominately used for this functionality, VPN.
