Unified P+V Networking for OpenStack Clouds

Recent IHS Markit research shows open networking and SDN deployments are accelerating, driven by broader adoption across both enterprises and service providers. Data center operators are recognizing that SDN-based open networking technologies have matured and not only deliver the potential for lower cost, but also for greater operational efficiency through automation. This webinar explores data center open networking motivations and key considerations with a special focus on operational considerations for multi-site data center networks, from migration to automation and analytics. It also looks forward to illustrate how open networking will enable distributed clouds for edge computing and 5G.

Are you worried about the impact of containers and Docker on your data center network? Wondering how you'll connect the Docker hosts with thousands of container instances to your data center fabric? Trying to understand the obscurities of Docker's default networking model? You'll get answers to all these questions in the Docker Networking Fundamentals webinar.

WiFi 6 is seeing strong traction and is quickly becoming a mainstream technology. While bringing massive performance improvements, this new generation of WiFi technology has also created complexities of its own, making service providers look beyond just providing fast pipes to homes.

Modern and exploded network infrastructure includes a multitude of edge devices such as switches, routers, firewalls, load balancers, and with the addition of cloud-based services it’s only getting more complex. Effective management of the network in a holistic manner is crucial for operational consistency. Regardless of your network size or type, constant configuration changes to infrastructure components based on business and technical requirements are inevitable and organizations need a modern approach to ensure configuration compliance across all network devices and services.
