Much is in the news lately concerning advances in
Carrier Ethernet technology. Network infrastructure build-out
is continuing at a rapid pace on every continent, with some of the

and on-demand media content (at ever faster speeds) seems to know
no bounds. For example,

"Collaboration" is a big buzz-word these days

is probably one of the most talked-about - but least understood -

personnel in both the Enterprise
and Service
Provider spaces are all wanting to get a piece of the
efficiency, problem-solving ability and cost savings that
collaboration provides. At the same time, there are vendors out
there making promises and claims that are...Read More »
Today we're going to be talking Redcell.
While comparisons are nice (and we ALWAYS encourage people who are
considering network infrastructure management software to do
comparisons!) it's also good to just straight-up answer the
question: "Why should I consider buying this
product??"
When it comes to mission-critical infrastructure - network or otherwise - the folks running it are necessarily and understandably risk-averse. We wouldn't want it any other way. After all, do we want people to...Read More »

Managing Next-Generation Service Provider
Networks
-- The

providers. Widely considered the most disruptive technological
event for service providers since mobile phones were first
introduced, consumer demand for mobile internet access has quickly
outstripped the capabilities of existing infrastructure. In
addition, mobile phone and...

No matter what software solution you decide to use for managing complex services and...Read More »

The problem with bandwidth arises when users begin oversubscribing to YouTube, Hulu and other high-bandwidth streaming services - requiring a tighter application of network...Read More »
