In this analysis, Frost & Sullivan focuses on leading global carriers that provide managed network services (MNS). Carrier MNS providers are primarily analyzed on their ability to offer MNS globally, based on their network footprint and the range of network services they provide and manage, including network access services (dedicated internet access, Ethernet, wavelength, and 5G), software-defined networking (SDN), cloud services, and security services. In the last few years, MNS providers have strengthened their network footprint by adding new routes and offering higher bandwidth speeds; they have also partnered with SDN vendors to provide best-of-breed solutions and support a multivendor approach to accommodate varied customer needs.
