The article analyzes VMware's acquisition of VeloCloud in the context of SD-WAN's disruption of legacy MPLS service provider models, arguing that SD-WAN enables network virtualization and multi-provider underlays which threaten incumbent providers' margins. It examines why service providers both embrace and hinder SD-WAN adoption, VeloCloud's provider-centric strategy and acquisition choice, and concludes that winning the future network services market requires service providers to transform operationally as well as technically.
