According to Gartner by 2025, 75% of large enterprises will build self-service infrastructure platforms to enable rapid innovation. As enterprises move to a hybrid cloud infrastructure including multi-tenant colocation data centers, IT teams are looking for ways to turn WAN connectivity into a self-service component of an agile cloud architecture.
