Web-scale networking for telcos

With all of the emerging trends such as mobility, cloud computing, big data and IoT, Telcos and CSPs (Communications Service Providers) are increasingly tasked with developing new services. And because service delivery is always a top priority, IT leaders are looking for ways to architect their data centers to improve performance and increase agility while maintaining cost efficiency.

Cumulus Networks commissioned Heavy Reading to conduct a survey of 70+ IT leaders in the Telco and CSP space to understand what is top of mind in terms of IT priorities. How do they feel about cloud computing? What are their biggest challenges and areas of focus? And with the advent of projects like data center interconnect (DCI), how does this affect their priorities and concerns?
