Gartner’s 2017 Strategic Roadmap for Networking

Trends

• Bandwidth requirements going up due to cloud services and IoT

• New applications coming on to the network with many having real-time performance requirements

• IT skills are changing and staffing pool is shrinking

• IT budgets are flat (surprise!)

Key Findings

• Expectations for on-demand services and flexibility are not well aligned with traditional networks

• Reducing complexity is a key prerequisite for building a reliable and cost-effective network platform.

• Incremental adjustments aren’t sufficient to satisfy new requirements

• A significant culture shift will be needed

Gartner’s 2017 Strategic Roadmap for Networking

Future State

• SDWAN use will grow from 2% today to 40% by YE18

• Dedicated Internet at the branch will go from 30% today to 60% by YE20

• Network architects with broad IT understanding will leverage analytics and automation

• Command Line Interface (CLI) use will shrink from 85% today to 30% by YE20

Requirements

• Invest in people with a broad technical skill set (since you’ll have fewer on staff)

• Create a culture that rewards innovation and flexibility

• Challenge all incremental product/service-level decisions and consider future requirements

• Take advantage of programmability and APIs to integrate the network

• Make the network simpler, more agile and more automated
