But four key software breakthroughs have led us to the edge of the next generation of autonomous networking, with implications more profound than previous revolutio...

We discuss Segment Routing consideration during the COVID-19 pandemic and break it up to three priorities to consider. 1) Make the network more robust thanks to TI-LFA, whenever and wherever a node or a link fails in the network, connectivity can be restored within 50ms. SR increases network resiliency 2) Custom-fit the network to application needs SR is seminal to E2E network slicing implementati...

The Public Cloud has forever changed enterprise architecture and the debate on public vs private cloud is unlikely to resolve to a single answer, resulting in enterprises building next-generation private infrastructure. Building a scalable kubernetes cluster on private infrastructure depends on developing an k8s integrated network infrastructure design. During this in Educational Video Briefing yo...
