Session 2A: (-10Gb-) 100Gb will change everything

  • Renier Van Heerden

Description

(10Gb) 100Gb will change everything:
In the early 2000s, SANReN started deploying 10Gb/s links and we profetically claimed it would “change everything”. With 100Gb/s now becoming the new normal, the scale has changed, but we still face some of the same challenges and opportunities we faced nearly two decades ago. Can your internal network handle such volumes of traffic? Are your firewalls the bottleneck? What happens when it goes down? Is it time to multi-home to manage risk?

    100GB vs. 10GB sounds awesome, but the path towards completely utilising the increased capacity is a journey, not one event in particular. Several factors must be considered before embarking on this journey. Join me as I discuss the path North-West University took, as well as some of the challenges we faced.
