Abstract

Methods are provided in which a computing device obtains telemetry data associated with a network technology used in an enterprise network and an enterprise network profile that includes information about the complexity of the enterprise network. The network technology is deployed at one or more devices of the enterprise network. The methods further include the computing device determining, based on the telemetry data, for each deployment of the network technology, a current stage from a plurality of stages of an adoption lifecycle to which the network technology progressed, determining a time estimate for completing the current stage of the adoption lifecycle, based on the enterprise network profile and an adoption benchmark generated from a plurality of activities performed for progressing along the adoption lifecycle, and evaluating an adoption of the network technology, using the time estimate, to progress the network technology along the lifecycle.
