Cloud networking

What is it?

Cloud Networking refers to the practice of managing and optimising computer networks using cloud-based technologies. This includes:

• Provisioning network resources such as routers, firewalls, and load balancers from cloud platforms.
• Centralised management of distributed networks.
• Secure connectivity between cloud services and on‑premise environments.

The main objective of cloud networking is to:

• Improve scalability, flexibility, and efficiency in enterprise network management.
• Reduce complexity and costs associated with traditional infrastructures.

Why filter companies by their usage?

Segmenting by cloud networking usage allows sales teams to adapt their strategies by:

• Supporting advanced companies with optimisation and security proposals.
• Educating companies that have not yet adopted these technologies to begin their network modernisation journey.

Companies that do use it

These companies already operate cloud-based networks and are likely interested in:

• Optimisation, including multi‑cloud configurations and efficiency improvements.
• Advanced services, such as performance monitoring or enhanced cloud network security.
• Additional integrations with other services or tools.

Companies that do not use it

These companies may be managing their networks locally or manually and require:

• An initial solution to start benefiting from cloud networking.
• Support to begin their transition to the cloud.

Your sales team could offer:

• Consulting services to understand requirements and plan the transition.
• Initial migrations to move on‑premise networks to the cloud.
• Hybrid services combining local and cloud‑based networks.
