1 PREVIEW 2016 Trends in Enterprise Networking DEC 2015 Peter Christy, Research Director After years of being the uninteresting technology in back of the network jack, networking has recently found celebrity status since it clearly plays a critical role in the transformation to the digital enterprise in datacenter networks, mobile access, wide area networks and cloud and hybrid computing. We see this trend continuing through the coming year Research, LLC

3 Key Findings In 2016 the increasing need for enterprises to become digital in order to be competitive will increase the motivation for agile networking and increase the importance and value of software-defined and virtual networking. In 2016 the impact of the largest (mega-scale) cloud providers on networking will be very clear, as will the fact that the large network vendors no longer drive technology adoption and network architecture advancement will mark a clear inflection point in the perception of merchant silicon use from a risky alternative for proprietary packet-forward ASICs to a network performance accelerator, especially in datacenter networking. III
4 Executive Summary 2016: NETWORKING: THE SOFTWARE INFLECTION POINT IS REACHED After five years of software-defined networking (SDN) that mixed real innovation with overblown and unfulfilled marketing promises, SDN is evolving past a push technology trying to establish its value and use cases to a technology that is increasingly pulled along by the growing importance of the digital enterprise and public cloud computing. SDN can play a key role in achieving the necessary network agility and automation, and it can help provide access to new platforms and services and integrate these diverse resources into a coherent whole. This report presents the trends we see shaping enterprise networking in the coming year. 451 Research s 2016 Enterprise Networking Trends Source: 451 Research, 2015 The Growing Impact of the Digital Enterprise and the Public Cloud Will Drive Continuing Advances in Datacenter and Wide Area Networking Mega-Scale Cloud Providers Will Continue To Diminish the Advantage of the Legacy Market Leaders The Exploitation of Merchant Silicon Parts Will Accelerate Network Advances The Evolution to Networking as Software Will Increase the Threat of Over-the-Top WAN Solution Alternatives Network Virtualization Will Drive Broad Network Architecture Evolution Winners Product and services that enable change and agility Merchant silicon companies; vendors on the leading edge of packaging network as software Network system builders and network users; early adopters of commodity switches built with merchant parts Appliance vendors that have aggressively attacked the broader software issues; those that have adapted product licensing prices to fit well into cloud and service provider architecture and economics Vendors that push forward aggressively, understanding the implications of software for networking and the potential benefits of new, more application-friendly network abstractions Losers Products and services that bet on the public cloud and other ability-enhancing changes as fads and believe that transitions to these new models of IT will only occur slowly Networking equipment vendors that don t embrace the innovation acceleration that a more software-centric (standard box) approach can bring or that defend traditional device architectures without a clear analysis and understanding of merchant alternatives and more software-centric solutions Network equipment vendors unable to accelerate software-based innovation Companies that don t move aggressively to design and market software appliances and distributed system solutions Vendors that stick to device-centric architectures and hardware business models IV
