“With the rapid growth of data traffic, increased traffic distribution, and the evolving threat landscape, enterprises must be able to simply and securely connect people and machines to data and applications anywhere in the world,” said Ed Morche, CEO, GTT. “GTT Envision delivers a unified approach to network and security management, providing enhanced visibility, insight, orchestration and control through a single partner, platform and digital experience. Moving forward, GTT Envision will enable us to usher in a new era of simplicity and deliver greater technology together with our customers across the globe.”

The GTT Envision platform combines the technology of EnvisionCORE and EnvisionEDGE for the virtual deployment of orchestrated network functions anywhere. This is managed, customized and controlled through a single digital experience with EnvisionDX. With robust interoperability and extensive API support, GTT Envision delivers the flexibility, integration capabilities and scalability that enterprises need to evolve and simplify their networks.

“Service Providers like GTT have the potential to offer enterprises the most comprehensive Network-as-a-Service solutions for the future of cloud networks, offering greater connectivity options based on application needs,” said Malcolm Rogers, Senior Analyst, GlobalData. “NaaS is growing and increasingly sold by providers such as GTT alongside networking and security solutions like SD-WAN, SSE, SASE and DDoS. When bundled into unified platforms, these services can feature deeper visibility and automation of data across the network, cloud and security layers leveraging analytics and AI technologies.”

• GTT provides agility and adaptability by allowing customers to continuously add and change networking and security functionality without the need to ‘rip-and-replace' the premise device.

EnvisionDX:

• GTT’s single digital gateway offers a managed networking experience that places customers’ networking and security functions at their fingertips to facilitate capabilities such as application performance optimization and network and security policies across the entire enterprise.
• In the coming months, GTT will offer a new AI engine that delivers actionable data and insights supporting stronger rules-based control, visibility and engagement.
