ESSENTIAL GUIDANCE 
Thursday, April 9, 2020, 06:08 AM
Secure, adaptable, reliable connectivity that addresses data volumes and bandwidth requirements is critical for the digitally transformed work environment. Organizations should deploy secure connectivity to:
Empower workers and other stakeholders with secure access to the resources that they require to collaborate, contribute, and get the job done, regardless of location, time, or device

Ensure application, data, equipment, and connectivity parity among all stakeholders, whether local or remote, full time or part time, employee or contract worker, supplier, or other partner

Leverage network prioritization and application-aware capabilities to prioritize traffic for interactive and critical applications

Ensure quality-of-service guarantees to avoid loss of data in small packet and machine-to-machine (M2M) and machine-to-human interactions
To achieve these goals, enterprises should consider the following:
Adopt a virtualized architecture with SD-WAN technology.

Incorporate edge computing, fixed and mobile, to handle low-latency applications, manage proliferation of content, and enable swift decisions at the edge.

Enable agile network management to easily handle multiple communication protocols, technologies, and devices

Use machine learning (ML) algorithms to proactively enhance worker experience and identify issues with network and application performance.
In addition, organizations must:
Extend the concept of "agile" beyond agile development. Prepare for "reconfigurable teams" and the agile workspace and agile infrastructures that support those teams.

Think humans and machines. Automation is not simply about replacement. Understand how technology can further augment human skills, enabling greater productivity, increased value, and improved employee and customer experiences.

Align workspace transformation with a broader future of work initiative and overall DX strategy.
