Spotlight on networking Spotlight on networking

Network infrastructure may be last bastion of traditional enterprise IT, with conventional routers, Ethernet and MLPS still the mainstays of many corporate networks – but that’s starting to change as open networking, SDN and other emerging technologies take hold.
