Futuriom conducted a survey in late 2024 on multicloud networking (MCN) and network-as-a-service (NaaS) in September and October. The survey of 131 qualified IT and networking professionals reflects a critical need for MCN and NaaS technology.
A majority of respondents in networking and IT roles (95%) said there is a “critical” or “very important” need for MCN connectivity. That number is an increase from the 90% measured in last year’s survey.
Major investment in MCN and cloud-native networking solutions is expected over the next five years. Some 84% of respondents expect to invest in MCN and cloud-native technology at some rate, with 44% expecting to invest substantially.
