For networking professionals, this brings a lot of new options and changes in the way they go about their work. Throughout all this change, though, the network remains vital. In fact, the network is becoming more critical than ever as connectivity demands skyrocket with mobile workforces, the rise of the internet of things, and the proliferation of cloud applications. IT professionals have their hands full with technologies that have been hyped for some time and are now ripe for adoption, including software-defined WAN, hybrid cloud computing, hyperconvergence, and Internet of Things. While the industry is still waiting for software-defined networking to reach mass adoption in the enterprise, software-defined WAN continues to be red hot. Software-defined WAN technology is sweeping across the industry, growing from an emerging technology in 2017 to become mainstream in 2018. As SD-WAN deployments become ubiquitous for organizations with remote offices, more big changes are expected to come.
