What is the expected growth rate for the service provider business in the next few years? 
he factors that are driving that acceleration in government spend, and then maybe talk a little bit about particularly on the service provider side, it doesn't seem as though we're seeing an acceleration from 5G and IoT yet. Who are the buyers there? How do you anticipate that segment will play out through the rest of the year as you look to work your way through the remainder of the year?
Ken Xie -- Founder, Chairman & Chief Executive Officer
Yes. Carrier and the lot of service provider starting to now reshaping their-wider security network offer whether it's 5G, SD-WAN, all of the SASE and also supporting work from home kind of still in the early stage, I put in this way. So that's where were working very closely with all the service provider like the VG [Phonetic] announced today, the AT&T announced last month and pretty much all the service provider to support and then all these shifting of the business model. And I say it's still early stage, but we do involve a lot of testing trial. And at the same time, I do believe eventually the service provider business will go back up to the number one, tend to be like a high 20, like if you go back four, six years ago, but it's a -- because it's a new kind of shifting, so they are -- they do have some work to do and also some big investment we see going forward. So we're working together with them to keep growing this business right now.

Good afternoon. Congratulations on the strong quarter. I just wanted to get a better sense of what you're seeing in terms of demand for the SASE and ZTNA oriented products. And are you seeing that pipeline sort of continued to rise, especially as we look at sort of replacements for the traditional VPN connections and other sort of more legacy technologies? Thank you.
Ken Xie -- Founder, Chairman & Chief Executive Officer
Yes, that is the new fast growing market, but also they probably replace some of the traditional approach, but some other traditional approach also expand inside campus, inside -- and probably inside the data center, so that go through the internal segmentation. On other side, we do believe we entered the SASE zero trust network like we said few years ago it's the best position probably saw the service provider carrier. So we tend to be more working with them, partner with them and also offer kind of more tighter integrated solution like we said in the FortiOS7.0 is very integrate OS network inside of some different vendor using different box, so you can kind of look at different inputs factors to that.
So that's actually working much better with a wider service provider with customer directly. So that's where we do see there are some fast growing going forward, but it's just part of the whole infrastructure solution will now replace the traditional approach, but also the whole thing's security is smarter than that dynamic space, there is a new team come up and also the -- that alternatives also not goes away. So that's where we try to address this new chain, at the same time keeping at hands the traditional solution and to supporting the customer in all different vertical different region.

Thank you. Our next question comes from the line of Ben Bollin with Cleveland Research. Your line is open.
Ben Bollin -- Cleveland Research -- Analyst
Good evening, Ken, Peter -- Keith, Peter. Thanks for taking the question. I was hoping you could talk a little bit about how you see customer discussions changing or evolving as they contemplate and start to return to their offices and to work. And then also hoping you could touch on how you view the growth opportunity over time from completely new customers versus wallet share expansion with your existing customers? Thanks.
