State of the Network
VIAVI Solutions completes 16th global State of the Network Study
Since 2007, we have surveyed IT professionals responsible for network, infrastructure, and application support to understand their status, successes, and challenges, as well as their plans for the next three years. The insights gathered provide valuable, independent information for anyone in similar roles looking to stay ahead of emerging challenges.
As we approach our sixteenth consecutive year, we have partnered with TechTarget's Enterprise Strategy Group and Principal Analyst Jim Frey to enhance the report's depth. This partnership not only includes surveying IT professionals but also involves expert analysis to compare current market trends and industry developments with the realities faced by organizations today.
2024/25 State of the Network Study
Over 750 IT networking and security professionals from various industries across 10 countries have shared their biggest successes and challenges with us. Our goal is to provide insights and analysis of the ever-evolving challenges these professionals face, driven by the proliferation of cloud-native applications and increasingly complex network infrastructure. This research evaluates the strategic innovations that help address these issues.
The objective of this ongoing research is to examine the evolution of network performance and security tools over the past 16 years and assess their impact on the operational and security posture of enterprise organizations.
