Managed SD-WAN (Software-Defined Wide Area Network) services involve third-party providers offering SD-WAN solutions that are maintained and operated on behalf of a customer. The service typically includes designing and deploying the network, ongoing management, monitoring, and support for the underlying SD-WAN infrastructure, which allows for the dynamic routing of traffic across a Wide Area Network. Managed SD-WAN services are often chosen for their potential to simplify the management of network resources, to enhance performance and reliability of connectivity between different geographical locations, and to improve application performance through intelligent path selection. Key offerings in the market include the ability to integrate with cloud services, offer security features, and provide analytics and reporting on network performance. As networks grow more complex with distributed applications and remote workforce demands, the adoption of managed SD-WAN services is rising among enterprises, seeking to ensure resilient and agile networking without direct oversight of day-to-day operations. Prominent companies offering managed SD-WAN services include Cisco Systems, VMware, Aryaka Networks, Silver Peak (acquired by Hewlett Packard Enterprise), Fortinet, and Versa Networks. Players like AT&T, Verizon, and CenturyLink also provide comprehensive managed SD-WAN solutions tailored to large enterprises and SMEs looking for scalable networking options. Show Less Read more
