Dell’Oro Group is putting a sharper name on something enterprise teams have been feeling for a while: in the AI era, the “WAN” cannot be a collection of loosely coupled products anymore. It has to operate like one end-to-end system with one policy model, one telemetry story, and one operational workflow.

Reimagining NetOps: Operational Intelligence Powered by Versa NLP based Co-Pilot
By Sridhar Iyer
February 9, 2026
Natural Language Processing (NLP) has evolved significantly over the past decade. From the humble beginnings of a simple rule-based lookup, it has now transformed into AI-driven systems capable of context-based responses for operational intelligence. In enterprise networks that are distributed, the need for simplified operations has never been greater. Network Operations (NetOps) teams are under increased pressure to troubleshoot faster, identify root causes accurately, and reduce resolution cycles while maintaining uptime and business agility.

Achieve Zero Blind Spots with Versa’s Complete Branch Security that Protects Guest Wi-Fi and Beyond
By Rajesh Kari
Senior Director of Products & Solutions
December 4, 2025
Branches are surging back in prominence as hubs for users, applications, and a rapidly expanding IoT ecosystem. In this new branch paradigm, Guest Wi-Fi is no longer a convenience. It’s a non-negotiable requirement across retail, healthcare, hospitality, financial services, and much more. Unfortunately, this shift introduces a new mix of unpredictable user behavior, diverse applications, and thousands of devices to the branch infrastructure. This dramatically increases bandwidth demands and expands the attack surface where guest devices can bring malicious files, launch DNS-based threats, enable data exfiltration, or open compliance and privacy gaps. Industry research shows 70% of performance degradation and…

Why Enterprises Are Finally Ripping and Replacing Their Legacy SD-WAN—and Embracing Versa
By Rajesh Kari
Senior Director of Products & Solutions
September 10, 2025
For a long time, most enterprises treated deployment of SD-WAN as a replacement to their legacy routers in order to enable traffic engineering on multiple WAN links. They were still forced to manage point products like WAN optimizers, firewalls and legacy switches in addition to SD-WAN, hoping to deliver better connectivity and performance, without the pain of replacing them with a unified solution. Industry reports show that this was the norm across organizations – a phased transition instead of bold replacement.
