Spiceheads,
Check out this blog by Jeff Vance: WAN is Failing Business, Reports Find
Jeff in his blog says, "I’m not convinced the WAN is up to the task of keeping up with so many converging trends that demand ever-higher bandwidth: cloud, mobility, social media, streaming media, etc."
He also says, "Monopolies aren't incentivized to constantly improve their products and services because they don’t have to. Monopolies don’t need to innovate because consumers don’t have a choice.
Startups, on the other hand, must innovate or die. Non-monopoly cloud-based network optimization startups must focus on customer needs, and in doing so, they’re starting to bring free market conditions back to the business networking market."
