How to Converge Optical and Packet Networks to Simplify Operations | Briefing

Wi-Fi has established itself as a de facto utility for many businesses and its employees. Without it, we're not quite sure how to work or collaborate. Join Jennifer Huber, a Technical Solutions Architect at WWT, as she talks about the current wifi networking landscape — from vendors and trends to use cases and outlook. Jennifer also talks about growing role machine learning and artificial intelligence will play in making networks more reliable and efficient.

Network operators can no longer afford to do things as they've always done them. Because of constant innovations and technology advancements, the days of like-for-like replacements of network equipment are getting fewer and farther between. Join Christine Fierro, WWT's Practice Director for Edge and Core Solutions, as she talks about the evolving needs of the enterprise network and how leaders can embrace new technologies and solutions that will keep their networks robust and resilient. Christine also talks about the important role people play in this effort and how organizations can measure success.

Network traffic is growing more complex each and every day as hybrid and remote work continues to be the norm. That's putting traditional network architectures in a state of major upheaval after decades of relative stagnation. Wi-Fi, secure access service edge (SASE), private wireless — options for connectivity keep growing. This includes transport networks, which are evolving to deliver new services and user experiences. Join WWT technical solution architects Joshua Hogan and Tyler Tappy as they discuss the important details of implementing a converged transport network, which takes the long-reach optical technology typically found in standalone optical networks and consolidates it into a compact, high-performance router. Joshua and Tyler also cover key steps to putting a converged transport network into action.
