I got an opportunity to attend the NFD-32 event as a remote delegate. The two-day event was full of presentations on cutting-edge technologies related to networking. Nile was one of the companies that impressed me with their innovative approach to technology and product offering. Now ! if you do not know about Niles, it’s fine, […]
I had a chance to watch an interesting presentation by Kentik in NFD-31 online back in April 2023. I have been attending NFD events organized by Techfieldday events for quite some time as a delegate. However, this time around, I just watched the presentation as a viewer ( not a delegate) Kentik has been coming […]
“Disaggregated Networking” is good, but “Network Cloud” is better. This is my analysis for one vendor’s approach to routing, after attending the NFD event on service provider that was held December 8-9 and that was Drivenets presentations on network cloud. I was one of the analysts that attended the event. Disclaimer: This is my own analysis. The vendor did […]
I was invited as an analyst to attend the NFD-26 event organized by Tech field day featuring networking vendors. As I listened to different vendors’ sessions, one of the presentations that caught my interest was from Juniper regarding their vision on AIOps in networking. As I work for a service provider, I deliberated on what issues this can […]
So it is not easy to have a list of OpenStack components/services all in one place. They are everywhere on the web and one can easily get lost. and when you do see a list of services, they are not described in a simple way.

Let’s talk about the edge cloud architecture How you should plan? where to place the controller? and where to place the rest of the functions? These questions are the first ones that pop up when a Telco wants to design its edge network After all, the reason a telco decides for edge computing in addition to […]
“Where are edge data centers located ?” This is the first question that any edge computing seeker asks and “what is the latency threshold for each edge data center” is the second that comes to mind Therefore, this blog answers these questions in easy to understand manner. I do see a lot of confusion with the naming […]
Edge computing is not only about having technology but also a smart business model. This statement is particularly true for telcos. And the telcos know about it. They know that with the new 5G core, they have an opportunity to deploy a more intelligent and service-oriented network edge which can open new business avenues like […]
Is Edge computing the only hope for service providers? With billions spent on cellular networks, everyone asks about the killer use cases for 5G. The new 5G Core is capable to provide ultra-low latency services opening the network to potential new user cases, but it can not solve on issue-The distance and latency. However, this […]
Software-defined Data Center is no longer a “marketing term” as many would make you believe. Rather, it is a complete framework for building your next software-based data center backed by standards. So it is important to understand a Software-defined data center ( SDDC)! But that’s not the only reason. The other reason is the confusion […]
