In the first part we discussed how video services are evolving within enterprise networks. Content may be sourced from internal servers, BYOD end points or external content providers, thereby creating a mix of managed and unmanaged services. This has led not only to growth in traffic, but also a competition for actual resources between the […]
With several key applications moving to the clouds, how do our customers ensure application performance? What if they deploy for instance Public or Private Hosted solutions or hybrid WAN, how do they ensure application experience? Today, we all see more and more new delivery models such as Private Cloud, Hybrid Cloud or Public Cloud, new […]
How do we evolve the IT architecture to enable an ever-increasing set of services while multiple MegaTrends are rapidly transforming the environment?

Both in terms of technical guidance as well as architectural innovations. In the Cisco Cloud approach, intelligence in the network can help ensure delivery of cloud […]
In my previous Blogs I have talked about Megatrends including BYOD, the Next-Generation Workspace, Video and the Internet of Things.

Services and applications are increasingly being delivered from very large data centres and, increasingly, from hybrid and public clouds too. Specifically, a good example of services being delivered from data centres is Hosted Desktops. I discussed in my […]
We recently discussed the perfect IT storm that is currently brewing in business. BYOD, Unified Access, Video, the Many Clouds, SDN… all happening at once, on current infrastructure, and yet demanding more. Some of the comments you made further emphasized the need to have an architectural approach. VXI/VDI deployments are no exception. Discussing VDI deployments […]
In my job as Cisco’s Field & Sales CTO for Borderless Networks in the Cisco EMEAR Theatre, I have the privilege of working directly with many Cisco customers and partners. The majority of these folks are what you’d call “Technical Decision Makers” and CTOs. They’re the IT leaders who do the planning, the strategy, and […]
