When tackling technical projects, every organization needs a system to make decisions, resolve conflicts, and chart alternative paths when plans go awry. Effective escalation is key, but the prospect of escalation can make engineers anxious. We need to reframe our view of escalation as a tool to help move a project forward.

Today's Heavy Networking is a forward-looking episode about semantic networking. Semantic networking aims to make decisions on how to route packets based on more than just the destination address and give network operators more routing choices based on considerations such as bandwidth, cost, performance, application type, and so on. But how do you add semantic information to IP headers? How do you program routers and networking hardware to consume semantics? Do we really need this? Guests Adrian Farrel and Hannes Gredler join Greg Ferro and Ethan Banks to discuss and debate.

There’s a trend to cloudify every aspect of IT. You might think that there’s no need to understand classical networking because “the cloud” solves problems related to routers and switches. The truth is that clouds have massive networks under the hood. Someone needs to connect cloud services and bring users to these clouds in a […]
