Is Your Manufacturing Network Ready for the AI Revolution?

Artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping industries at an unprecedented pace, and manufacturing is no exception. From predictive maintenance to AI-driven automation, the integration of AI into manufacturing processes demands more from enterprise networks than ever before. But is your Wide Area Network (WAN) ready to support the AI-driven future?

Top 5 Technology Trends Shaping Manufacturing in 2025

The past five years have been a whirlwind for manufacturers. From pandemic-induced supply chain disruptions to geopolitical tensions, economic shifts, and rapid digitalization, the industry has faced challenge after challenge. Yet, these disruptions have also paved the way for a more resilient, agile, and technology-driven future.
For IT leaders in manufacturing, 2025 is shaping up to be a year where digital investments will no longer be optional—they will be essential for staying competitive. As technology continues to redefine industrial operations, the focus is shifting from experimental implementations to full-scale digital transformation.

How to Secure Multi-Cloud through SD-WAN

SD-WAN is a relatively new technology that is being adopted by many organizations in order to improve their WAN performance. SD-WAN offers a number of advantages over traditional WAN solutions, including improved performance, lower costs and easier deployment. One of the main benefits of SD-WAN is its ability to improve video performance. Video is one of the most demanding applications when it comes to network bandwidth.

Difference Between SASE and SD-WAN

There are various technologies used for Wide Area Networking (WAN) connectivity. Two of the most popular technologies are Software-Defined WAN (SD-WAN) and Secure Access Service Edge (SASE). While there are some similarities between the two technologies, there are also key differences that make them well-suited for different use cases. SASE is relatively new, while SD-WAN has been around for a few years. However, to understand the similarities between SASE and SD-WAN, it is important to understand both the technologies and their evolution out of traditional WAN.

6 Benefits How SD–WAN Will Improve Your Life

Versa vs Silver Peak SD-WAN

According to updated reports of the Dell’Oro Group, there are five top SD–WAN vendors who are running toe-to-toe for supremacy in the SD–WAN market share. The year 2019 was seen as a breakout year for the adoption of SD–WAN when it surpassed a $1 billion market share. According to already mentioned reports, Cisco, Versa Network, VMware, Silver Peak and Fortinet are holding high ranking positions, as these top SD–WAN market leaders accounted for a 60% accumulated share in the generated revenue in 2019. But none of them surpassed a 20% share of the market, which shows a high potential for competition among the market giants for dominance. That is why these are still early days for penetration into the market.
