SD-WAN vs MPLS: Battling for Network Dominance

Grab your headphones, we've got a podcast recommendation.

TeleGeography Senior Manager of Enterprise Research Greg Bryan recently visited MEF's Executives at the Edge podcast. He chatted with host and MEF co-founder Pascal Menezes about the evolving landscape of enterprise networking as SD-WAN becomes the norm and SASE gains traction.

Listen in as the pair assesses how MPLS is declining (yet persisting) and why NaaS is generating buzz.

The duo also consider:

Has SD-WAN truly become the new normal for enterprise networks?
What SD-WAN deployment models are companies using—DIY, managed services, or hybrid?
Is MPLS on its way out, or will it continue to play a role in enterprise connectivity?
How rapidly is SASE adoption growing, and how does it tie into the SD-WAN trend?
What are the key drivers and obstacles for enterprises embracing NaaS?
