The results are in. According to our research, the global SD-WAN market for large multinational enterprises is worth $3 billion. This accounts for just 5% of the total market.
Endeavors like SpaceX’s Starlink and Amazon’s Project Kuiper have brought lots of attention to the expanding market for connecting more residential customers to satellite broadband.
But how are enterprises affected by the growing satellite market?
Here's a headline you might have caught recently.
Our research indicates that India’s used international bandwidth is expected to grow at a compounded annual rate of 38% between 2021 and 2028. This rate of growth implies international bandwidth demand will increase 10 times over this period.
To provide insight into how a complete SD-WAN overlay can impact total network spend, it’s useful to look at how various cost components apply to a specific network.
Looking at the total cost of the overlay and its impact on a network’s total cost of ownership (TCO) affords the most apples-to-apples comparison between service providers, particularly with a number of pricing models currently in the market.
To do this level of analysis, we created a hypothetical network based on our median WAN Cost Benchmark customer.

What's Wireless Got to Do With It?
Anyone in the WAN business—from the carrier or end-user side—knows that local access can present some of the biggest challenges in corporate networks.
There's a physical geography problem that's not easy to overcome. We're talking about pulling and maintaining wires to all corporate sites, which is especially challenging when customers need physical diversity and protection.
Wireless has long been a backup of last resort for many users, but 5G has presented the promise of relieving this pain point.
NaaS and middle mile are fairly new concepts in the industry, but they're old hat on TeleGeography's podcast. In past episodes, we've spotlighted the framework, concept, market players, and products available.
Today, we look at things from another perspective.
You already know that Ukrainians are taking to platforms like Twitter, Telegram, and TikTok to share the sights and sounds of Russia’s invasion.
But here’s a new development: in just one month, carriers have clocked a sevenfold increase in international voice traffic to Ukraine.
