Network Management Megatrends 2024: Skills Gaps, Hybrid and Multi-Cloud, SASE, and AI-Driven Operations
Since 2008, the Enterprise Management Associates (EMA) Network Management Megatrends report has been the definitive benchmark study of enterprise network operations strategies. Over the years, EMA has surveyed and interviewed thousands of IT professionals to track how major technology trends are changing the way enterprises manage, monitor, and troubleshoot their networks.
This year’s report revealed that 42% of organizations are currently successful with network operations, reversing a multi-year decline that bottomed out at 27% in 2022. The research found that network teams have reduced tool sprawl and become more practiced with problem detection. While network teams are doing better, many challenges remain, including skills gaps and budget shortfalls.
Watch the webinar where EMA VP of Research, Shamus McGillicuddy, highlights key findings from the 2024 report, including:
- The pitfalls to watch out for when managing and monitoring today’s networks
- The technical initiatives that your network operations team should evolve to support in the future
- How teams are reacting to the spread of hybrid and multi-cloud architectures
- How SASE is impacting network operations
