“Deploying networks ‘as-a-service’ will become a cornerstone of any successful enterprise digital transformation. It provides greater time-to-value for new sites or use cases, optimises cloud strategies, and increases networking control by abstracting hardware and providing centralised management.”

SDX Central (2023-01-30)

Cloud-native enterprises and startups will be the earliest adopters, with small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and multinational corporations lagging due to uncertainties with NaaS, the research firm found. ABI Analyst Reece Hayden said the biggest concern that these enterprises have is the as-a-service billing model. “Even though it gives you that agility, that flexibility, it’s creating unexpected monthly billing. The enterprises are used to knowing how much they pay per month or per year for their network services,” Hayden told SDxCentral.

Enterprises, to support digital transformation today, need solutions that offer cloud-native agility, multi-cloud accessibility and services that can fluctuate. As a result, there is increased interest in the network-as-a-service market. ABI Research expects the NaaS market to reach over $150 billion by 2030, at which time, about 90% of enterprises will have migrated at least one-quarter of their global network infrastructure to be consumed within a NaaS model. Telecoms companies, seeing a decline in revenue from connectivity, are presented with an opportunity to dominate the NaaS market. However, as ABI Research (News - Alert) Distribute and Edge Computing Analyst Reece Hayden says the investment strategy, business, operational and go-to-market models of telcos are not quite ready to deliver a competitive NaaS solution.

ABI Research forecasts this new network-as-a-service (NaaS) market to expand significantly reaching over US$150 billion by 2030. “Telcos must seize the opportunity to dominate the NaaS market, as revenue generated from connectivity provision will continue to decline. However, their investment strategy, business, operational, and ‘go-to-market’ models are not ready to deliver a competitive NaaS solution, explains Reece Hayden, distributed & edge computing analyst at ABI Research.

Telecom network operators remain positioned to tap into the increasingly lucrative network-as-a-service (NaaS) market but must act fast if they want to take advantage of that positioning and $75 billion market opportunity by 2030, according to a recent report from ABI Research. The report notes that telecom operators currently lack business models that allow them to build on their physical connectivity advantages and wrestle control of the NaaS market from interconnection providers like Megaport and Packet Fabric and cloud-focused giants like Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP).

A new study by ABI Research touches on the rise of network as a service (NaaS). Reece Hayden, ABI’s distributed and edge computing analyst, said the NaaS market will surpass $150 billion by 2030. Moreover, telco market revenue can exceed $75 billion by 2030. However, such a result requires that telcos transform their technology and operations, Hayden said. “Telcos must seize the opportunity to dominate the NaaS market, as revenue generated from connectivity provision will continue to decline. However, their investment strategy, business, operational, and ‘go-to-market’ models are not ready to deliver a competitive NaaS solution, Hayden said.

Trends accelerated by the pandemic have created significant networking and security challenges: the expansion of the remote workforce, an increasing reliance on cloud infrastructure, and the requirement to connect end-users securely everywhere with applications anywhere. Traditional solutions that have rigid wired network underlays and a requirement for on-premises infrastructure cannot adequately deal with these trends. This has led to a rapid expansion of demand for secure access service edge (SASE) solutions such that enterprises can shift networking and security infrastructure toward a cloud-native platform that can be delivered ‘as-a-service’. Although converging networking and security offers enterprises a promising solution, global technology intelligence firm ABI Research highlights that there is still a considerable misalignment between enterprises’ perceptions of “what SASE could do” and the reality of “what SASE is currently capable of achieving.”

SDX Central (2022-04-24)

“Consolidation and convergence are essential to driving the value proposition and re-aligning perception with reality,” explained Reece Hayden, enterprise connectivity, and distributed and edge computing research analyst at ABI Research, in a statement. “The three areas where this will be vital will be within the private network backbone, zero-trust architecture, and single pane of glass visibility. As these facets of SASE will be critical to its appeal to enterprises.” Hayden added that the SASE market will need to run through a maturity cycle before it’s able to capitalize on that appeal.

Las 3 C de la 5G para maximizar el valor de SASE. Las tendencias aceleradas por la pandemia han supuesto importantes desafíos a nivel de redes y de seguridad: la expansión de la fuerza de trabajo remota, una mayor dependencia de la infraestructura de la nube y la exigencia de conectar a los usuarios finales de forma segura en cualquier lugar con cualquier aplicación. Las alternativas tradicionales sustentadas en redes cableadas rígidas e infraestructura local no pueden lidiar adecuadamente con estas necesidades. Esto ha llevado a una rápida expansión de la demanda de soluciones de Secure Access Service Edge (SASE), de modo que las empresas pueden cambiar la infraestructura de redes y seguridad hacia una plataforma nativa de la nube que se puede entregar "como servicio". Si bien la

It’s evident that most services remain in their early stages of convergence, and significant consolidation is required before the true value of SASE can be delivered to enterprises. “Consolidation and convergence are essential to driving the value proposition and re-aligning perception with reality. The three areas where this will be vital will be within the private network backbone, zero-trust architecture, and single pane of glass visibility. As these facets of SASE will be critical to its appeal to enterprises,” explains Reece Hayden, Enterprise Connectivity and Distributed & Edge Computing Research Analyst at ABI Research. “Over the next few years, it will be interesting to see how vendors bridge these gaps. ABI Research predicts that a combination of M&A, organic development, and partnerships will deliver the most value in the short, medium, and long run.”

Prior to the pandemic, the uptake of software-defined wide area networks (SD-WAN) had been on a solid trajectory. However, since then, and with the emergence of secure access service edge (SASE), which integrates SD-WAN with edge security, a perception has grown that SD-WAN is somewhat outdated, something ABI Research has claimed to be unfounded. Indeed, according to the leading technology analyst’s The future of SD-WAN in enterprise connectivity report, there is still a considerable market opportunity across the entire software-defined portfolio for innovative suppliers looking to keep up with enterprise vertical demand.
