Technology and service providers (TSPs) who are able to offer an end-to-end service for 4G/5G private mobile network (PMN) include: CSPs, Network equipment providers (NEPs), Systems integrators (SIs) and Hyperscalers. PMNs are used exclusively by a given enterprise client, providing higher security and reliability than public cellular networks. PMN offerings can include voice, video, messaging and broadband data, as well as specific critical communications features (such as lone worker protection [LWP] or push-to-talk over cellular [PTToC]). PMNs can then support use cases around HD video, data, artificial intelligence (AI)/machine learning (ML) and Internet of Things (IoT), and run on-site or in a cloud, or a multiaccess edge computing data center (MEC DC).
Gartner define this, market which includes mobile and fixed wireless broadband internet access services based on the 5G standard developed by the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP). Cellular carriers, in turn, deliver 5G services using low-, mid- and high-frequency licensed spectrum bands. Enterprise customers purchase 5G services for two primary use cases: (1) Fixed wireless access (FWA) for locations such as branch offices. FWA services can offer unlimited data usage, but more typically they offer access setting monthly data usage thresholds, after which data bandwidth is throttled down until the end of the month. (2) Internet access for mobile users. Smartphone 5G services are typically sold as a bundle of data, messaging and voice, with the voice portion predominantly based on 4G LTE. These services can be assessed for their geographic reach, performance, price, service plan features, service-level agreements (if available), customer support/management and connection security.
The market for distributed denial of service (DDoS) mitigation includes vendors that detect and mitigate DDoS attacks and offer it as a dedicated offering. It includes specialty vendors, whose primary focus is DDoS mitigation, as well as providers that offer DDoS mitigation as a feature of other services. These include dedicated appliance-based vendors, communication service providers (CSPs), content delivery network (CDN) vendors, hosting providers and cloud infrastructure and platform services (CIPS) vendors.

Gartner defines global WAN services as POP-based services supporting multiregional corporate networks across geographies. These services address enterprise challenges such as changing working practices, accelerating digital and cloud transformations, and improving the agility of enterprise networks. Providers own and operate their own global core networks and sell directly to the client. Services include transport-centric/unmanaged, managed, co-managed, or network as a service via a monthly recurring fixed or usage-based model. Core transport services are often complemented by ancillary services like carrier-based cloud interconnect, managed SD-WAN, SASE or managed dual-vendor SASE with SD-WAN paired with SSE security. Services are measurable and consumable through web-based customer interfaces via portals and programmable APIs.
Gartner defines managed IoT connectivity services as a market that enables connectivity, data collection and analysis, and additional decision services that are necessary for connected solutions. For large organizations, managed IoT connectivity services are normally delivered fully managed, including dedicated help desk and project and service management capabilities. For midsize and small organizations, they are frequently delivered as a self-service provided through an IoT connectivity management portal, including Level 2 and Level 3 back-office support.

Public cloud storage is infrastructure as a service (IaaS) that provides block, file, object and hybrid cloud storage services delivered through various protocols. The services are stand-alone, but often used in conjunction with compute and other IaaS products. The services are priced based on capacity, data transfer and/or number of requests. The services provide on-demand storage capacity and self-provisioning capabilities. Stored data exists in a multitenant environment, and users access that data through the block, network and REST protocols provided by the services.
Gartner defines unified communications as a service (UCaaS) as a cloud-delivered service that provides the following core capabilities: 1) Telephony 2) Meetings 3) Messaging 4) Software apps 5) APIs 6) Adjacent services
Gartner defines zero trust network access (ZTNA) as products and services that create an identity and context-based, logical-access boundary that encompasses an enterprise user and an internally hosted application or set of applications. The applications are hidden from discovery, and access is restricted via a trust broker to a collection of named entities, which limits lateral movement within a network.
