Cloud-centric AI-driven global network services are the foundation for AI-enabled enterprises

NTT DATA is proud to be recognized as a Leader in the 2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Global WAN Services. We believe this recognition reflects our ability to support multinational enterprises with secure, resilient and AI-powered global network services at scale.

WAN services are evolving as enterprises adopt cloud-centered architectures, hybrid work models, AI workloads and more dynamic network consumption models.

We see Global WAN Services as point-of-presence (POP)-based services that support multiregional corporate networks, including transport-centric, managed, co-managed and network-as-a-service models.

NTT DATA helps organizations connect users, sites, clouds and applications worldwide through a global WAN portfolio that includes internet, MPLS, Ethernet, cloud interconnects, managed SD-WAN, managed SASE, NaaS, and wavelength services via an AI-enabled service platform.

Our global WAN services help enterprises:

  • Modernize multiregional network infrastructure
  • Support cloud and AI workload growth
  • Improve visibility through AI-powered portals, analytics and APIs
  • Adopt leading SD-WAN and SASE technologies
  • Connect cloud, data center, branch and remote environments
  • Use AI and automation for best-in-class network operations

With advanced automation, operational excellence and end-to-end security monitoring, NTT DATA helps organizations build resilient, future-ready digital foundations.
