Branch Offices
"Software-defined WAN (SD-WAN) solutions will play an important role in enabling enterprise Internet of Things (IoT) initiatives. Most enterprises are experiencing growth in the number of endpoints connecting to the network in branch offices and remote sites. According to recent Enterprise Management Associates (EMA) research, 59% of enterprises say that IoT devices are a significant source of that growth, contributing more than smartphones and tablets.
IoT devices in remote sites will present challenges around bandwidth, security, policy management, and more. These challenges will be exacerbated by the fact that most remote sites lack onsite IT personnel who can ensure that IoT devices are safely connected to the network. SD-WAN solutions have the potential to address many of these challenges.”
