A Year in Review & Looking Ahead to 2021
Dear WAN Enthusiast,
Perhaps 2020 represented one of the greatest human migrations in history – from the office to home! 2021 should start to see the trend reverse, as normalcy returns. The next generation of WAN architectures will place significant emphasis on managing change with cloud-first principles. This edition puts the spotlight on several Aryaka customers that are already paving the way. Here’s to a healthy and successful 2021!
Best,
Shashi
