2. To understand today’s distributed enterprise landscape, IDC and
Comcast Business conducted a survey of IT professionals in U.S.
businesses with five or more organizations. While respondents
emphasized the importance of distributed enterprise networking, it
was surprising how many companies are not getting it right.
Based on the research, IDC developed a Distributed Enterprise
Transformation Index, identifying four levels of distributed enterprise
networking sophistication.

3rd-party resources. Relies on a mix
of public Internet and private WAN
