For today’s digital organizations, delivering reliable network per- formance has never been this critical, or this challenging.
One reason is the meteoric growth and diversity of clients on a network. The number of connected devices driven by the Internet of Things (IoT) is expected to grow to almost 31 billion worldwide by 2020. At the same time, the variety of applications and traffic being generated is fast evolving. Video, for example, will represent 82% of all IP traffic in 2021, amounting to 1 million minutes of video transmitted through networks every second. And then there are consumers’ rising expectations of network performance and voice quality.
