Driven by global trends towards the adoption of the cloud-first strategy, explosion of smart internet of things (IoT) devices in the enterprise networks, and growing investments in realizing digital transformation strategies are creating enormous demand for reliable and faster WAN connections. Enterprise WAN networks require agility, reliability, and uptime to ensure optimum application performance. Conventional networking solutions were not designed to support the performance expected from the present generation of applications in a multi-cloud environment. SD-WAN is increasingly being perceived as a next-generation of networking technology to support enterprise digital transformation and cloud-first strategies.

Driven by the value proposition in simplifying the WAN and branch networks, improvement in WAN and application performance, reduced capital and operational expenditure, improved agility of WAN management, enhanced network visibility and security, and quick ROI, global SD-WAN market is expected to grow significantly to reach a market size of over $17.92 billion by 2024. Additionally, vendors continued efforts in improving the awareness and overall value proposition in terms of enhanced integration with best-of-breed security and networking products, orchestration and automation of network processes, improved zero-touch deployment, advanced analytics and application visibility, and improvements in machine learning & artificial intelligence capabilities to drive next-generation of SD-WAN solution is contributing to the market growth. Vendors are also looking at providing enhanced support for full-fledged IoT infrastructure and mobility by supporting future wireless technologies, 5G, and Gigabit LTE.
