How to Manage & Automate Your IP Optical Network

In addressing the burgeoning demand for broadband connectivity in rural America, a robust and innovative IP Optical Network Architecture is essential. The architecture must incorporate a best-in-class multi-layer design optimized for middle-mile functionality, integrating both voice and security dimensions. A pivotal requirement is to decouple the last mile from the middle mile, ensuring that the last-mile solutions can remain agnostic to various technologies while still benefiting from a unified middle-mile infrastructure. Furthermore, the network must be equipped with 400G-ready service-aware routing capabilities at edge and aggregation layers, facilitating efficient data flow management at local nodes.

IP Optical Middle Mile Network Architectures for Rural America

As consumers continue to shift away from traditional cable broadcasting towards streaming video services such as Netflix, Disney+, Hulu, and Paramount+, this will continue to drive the demand for robust middle mile solutions. This growth in data traffic demands not only enhance rural provider’s Internet infrastructure but also fortify their needs for data center interconnectivity (DCI) to metropolitan hubs. In this context, rural markets require connectivity solutions that can support 100G and even 400G connections to efficiently handle rising bandwidth needs tied to cloud applications and content delivery networks.   The first in our webinar series will cover: 
- Expand on drivers for middle-mile connectivity for video content delivery as well as opportunities for DCI connectivity for rural datacenters
- Need for secondary DCI opportunities for rural carriers outside metro hubs
- Why 100G Middle Mile isn’t enough   need to plan for 400G

What’s Driving Traffic in Rural America – Broadband, Wireless & DCI for AI

Join us for an inside look at how our Fortune 500 enterprise customer revolutionized its voice security workloads with cloud native and automation. Discover why more enterprises are embracing cloud native architectures to economically secure their contact centers and unified communications. 

Customers are telling us:   
·       We don’t want to manage server farms and data centers.
·       We want our SBCs in the same public or private clouds as our Unified Communications (UC) and Contact Centers (CC).
·       We’re tired of rising virtualization license costs.
·       We want to deploy voice services with the same automation pipelines we use for other applications, leveraging CI/CD, SecOps and DevOps practices.
 
Ribbon’s cloud native Session Border Controller (SBC) addresses these needs and goals by  eliminating hardware maintenance, freeing organizations to focus on strategic goals. It enables automated deployments and SecOps integration with advanced cloud-native features. It empowers IT teams to manage communications apps on unified infrastructure.

Ribbon cloud native SBC is already tested with nearly every UC and contact center vendor. Still using Oracle, AudioCodes, Cisco, Avaya or Metaswitch SBCs? Join us to see the difference between what you have and what you need!

The primary mission of optical networks is transporting 100GbE traffic, and soon, 400GbE traffic. Some popular solutions have a less-publicized aspect that can lead to abandoned spectrum. The webinar shows how to avoid that. It explains how to build a future-proof optical network on an organized spectral plan that accomplishes two goals simultaneously: optimizing for performance for dense traffic and long distances and optimizing for power and cost everywhere else.

Key Topics for Discussion:
Importance of being 400GbE ready.
How new 400G ZR+ changes the economic equation.
Optimizing transport for performance versus optimizing for power and cost.
Tradeoffs between line rates and channel widths (what they don’t tell you).
How to have your cake (best transport solution today) and eat it too (on a future-proof network).

Building a Future-proof Optical Highway with 400G ZR+

Automation is one of the main considerations when defining a cloud strategy. It is essential that enterprises implement automation within their cloud infrastructure so that they can not only enhance efficiency and generate opex savings, but also to scale operations and improve service delivery to their customers. Despite its importance, automation still has its challenges. Organizations must know how to automate tasks across often complex cloud architectures, in addition to meeting security expectations and navigating implementation costs. During this session, speakers will delve into automation essentials and discuss key tools, such as artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in automating cloud platforms.
