As enterprises demand greater agility, higher performance and network expense optimisation, the demand for managed SD-WAN solutions has accelerated. Gartner forecasts that global enterprise spending on SD-WAN products will grow at a 30.2% CAGR through 2022 to become a US$1.8 billion market*.
With its SD-WAN expansion, Colt's customers can now benefit from features such as application-based traffic steering, real-time service changes via an interactive customer portal and virtual routing, as well as firewall services enabled via network functions virtualisation (NFV).
Solutions are delivered via universal customer premise equipment (CPEs), which are now also available on a self-install basis for faster customer delivery. Colt provides a range of network access options including delivery over Colt's owned fibre network, third-party Internet and 3G/4G radio access at remote sites, with customers also being able to prioritise traffic using advanced routing techniques.
Colt's new On Demand proposition, launched in Singapore at the same time, allows businesses to take control of their networks, allowing them to scale their bandwidth up and down in near real-time, bypassing legacy service delivery processes and lead times.
Both solutions expand on Colt's rollout of a 100Gbps metro network in the country in 2017, as part of its commitment to the government's Smart Nation initiative. They leverage the Colt IQ Network, which connects to more than 850 data centres and over 27,000 on-net buildings globally. The Colt IQ Network also encompasses 51 metro area networks and 207 cities worldwide. In Singapore, Colt's own self-operated network provides Singaporean firms with a fully-managed, end-to-end connected network.
