TNO067: The Impact of AI on Internet Traffic
3d ago01:02:09Tap to summarizeScott Robohn sits down with guests Lenny Giuliano and Russ White to examine whether generative AI will affect internet traffic patterns. Together they explore the role of CDNs, the importance of latency, and the potential for a shift toward edge-based inference. They also discuss the impact of data sovereignty on infrastructure and the potential return... Read more »
Transcribe →HN836: Optimize AI Traffic on the WAN with Ciena’s Integrated IP Networking (Sponsored)
3d ago00:54:52Tap to summarizeAs more applications and services rely on AI inferencing, that means more traffic on the WAN. Yes, bandwidth can solve a lot of problems, it’s not unlimited and AI inference traffic still has to share pipes with other flows. That means things like WAN latency, determinism, security, and traffic engineering are just as important as... Read more »

Transcribe →PP119: Automating Firewall Ops To Stay Ahead of AI Threats (Sponsored)
6d ago00:49:08Tap to summarizeThere’s always been a gap between the discovery of a security issue and the time it takes to remediate. Now AI models can autonomously find weak points and chain together actions to exploit them. How does AI change the notion of “fast enough” for network defense? On today’s sponsored episode we dig into how FireMon... Read more »
