Executive Summary
As modern enterprises embark on the digital transformation journey, they are rapidly replacing on-premise infrastructure with cloud technologies. The application, storage, and compute layers have already moved to the cloud, but the network layer is still managed by a combination of hardware and cloud-based solutions.
In the early days of the Internet, enterprises relied exclusively on network hardware devices to deliver capabilities like routing, firewalls, traffic optimizations, and load balancing. This approach worked for a while, but the Internet has become more complex and applications are moving to the cloud. Enterprises are shifting away from single, on-premise data centers and transitioning to multi-cloud, hybrid cloud, and SaaS solutions. They simply cannot stick the hardware boxes in the cloud to manage the network layer. On-premise infrastructure involves expensive hardware, labor-intensive installation followed by on-going maintenance, and single-purpose point solutions.
Cloudflare is leading the transition of the network layer to the cloud, enabling enterprises to replace the hardware with cloud-based services: VPN as a service, firewall as a service, load balancing as a service, and more.
