Megaport releases new global insights revealing how enterprises are orchestrating networks to deliver performance, compliance, and resilience at scale.
(BUSINESS WIRE)--Megaport Limited (Megaport) (ASX: MP1), the global leader in Network as a Service (NaaS), today released its 2025 Cloud Network Report, revealing a decisive industry shift: enterprises are going further than expansion and growth with connectivity and are virtualizing and orchestrating their networks to deliver resilience, sovereignty, and performance at scale.
The report draws on operational data from Megaport’s platform, spanning over 1,000 enabled locations across 150+ cities, and global survey insights from IT leaders. Findings show that routing and edge product deployments grew 42% year-on-year, underscoring a move from static cloud builds to programmable, intelligent fabrics.
“The future of competitiveness lies in how well enterprises can virtualize and orchestrate connectivity. Intelligent routing, segmentation, and traffic shaping are transforming networks into adaptive systems that don’t just move data, but make decisions. That’s where performance, sovereignty, and resilience converge.” – Michael Reid, CEO, Megaport
