SDN-Enabled All-Optical Circuit Switching

February 10, 2017

Current data center network architectures cannot scale to meet the demands created by the proliferation of bandwidth-hungry mobile data applications and the associated rapid increase of internal (East-West) traffic volumes. The trend toward multi-tenant and disaggregated virtual data centers creates further challenges in provisioning Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). Operators need more capacity in the same footprint together with the flexibility to allocate resources dynamically when, and to where, they are needed most. While optical interconnects are widely deployed to provide high speed transmission between processing elements in the data center, switching is still performed electronically, with fiber layer connectivity remaining mainly static.

Infrastructure Protection Best Practices

whitePaper | December 14, 2022

In the post-pandemic world, we spread data everywhere. As remote and hybrid workforce models become the norm, multi-cloud deployments evolve into the de facto computing standard for distributed workloads. This expands the attack surface well beyond the walls of a traditional data center and overextends already understaffed security teams. As a result, organizations struggle to combat the growing number of insider and outsider threats targeting their invaluable digital assets.

Threat detection and response in cloud environments

whitePaper | October 3, 2022

Cloud environments change fundamental assumptions in how to perform threat detection and response. The highly dynamic inventory of cloud workloads means systems come and go in seconds. When system configuration errors are introduced during a build, they can be exacerbated and amplified when automation replicates the errors across many workloads. Shared responsibility with the cloud service provider (CSP) creates potential threat detection gaps in the attack lifecycle.
