MPLS is dead, Long live MPLS

The initial hype of SD-WAN claimed that MPLS was dead as SD-WAN was going to remove all need for SLA based circuits. Now that we’re several years in and have some experience under our collective belts, we take a look at whether or not the original hype was correct and what real world customers are doing when it comes to selecting circuits for their SD-WAN networks.

Today is a bit of a sad day for Network Collective…

It’s with quite a heavy heart that that I’m announcing that Russ White and Eyvonne Sharp are both stepping away from organizational responsibilities at Network Collective. There is no question that this is a significant loss on both accounts. Both Russ and Eyvonne have played irreplaceable roles in building Network Collective into what it is today, and those contributions cannot be understated. I’m grateful for every ounce of effort, wisdom, and perspective that they have invested into the podcast and wish nothing but success to the both of them as they move into new endeavors. Luckily both will still be around in the member’s slack and hopefully on a show or two every once in a while!

What does this mean for Network Collective?

First, Network Collective as you know it isn’t going anywhere. Clearly, I’m going to have to take a step back and evaluate how things proceed from here. We’ve made many plans with the intention of three active contributors and now that’s simply not the case. You might notice some blips in the production schedule and changes to the lineup of podcasts as I get things rearranged and streamlined for a one-person shop.

We’re going back to our roots here at Network Collective and that means we’re going to be spending more time chatting and less time with agendas. In this episode we discuss Russ’s impression of ONUG 2019 in Dallas, the team’s take on solving problems in a meeting, the value of meetings in general, and the slow but steady rise of SDN adoption in the enterprise.
