IDC PeerScape: Practices to Accelerate Adoption of Network Technologies Using Professional Services to Improve Connectedness

This IDC PeerScape focuses on three main areas of challenges and discusses the solutions to these challenges. These areas are accurate skills and operational assessment, inability to extract maximum value from networking investments, and limited and inconsistent training resources to drive successful adoption. "The pace at which new networking technologies and operating models are coming to enterprise networking has increased dramatically over the past decade," states Leslie Rosenberg, research vice president, Network Life-Cycle Services and Infrastructure Services at IDC. "Skills-deficient networking teams can barely keep up with the day-to-day operations of the network, let alone successfully implement and adopt new networking paradigms to remain competitive and drive innovation. Adoption services from a professional services partner ensures that enterprises can extract maximum value from their networking investments and drive the business forward."
