What cool or interesting recent developments in the networking space have you head of lately?

The most exciting one at the moment is around network fabrics in the data centre – just how simple they are to get up and running these days in comparison to before 

Can you tell us about a recent networking deployment you have done?

We worked with a new service provider based out of southwestern NSW. That organisation has basically decided to take on NBN Co out in that area and we've worked and built the full network core as well as bringing their first customer on board for 80 locations with wireless switching and routing and a VoIP system.

What is driving customers’ networking projects?

All the things that have always driven those environments: changing business, upgrades of equipment coming to end of life and how [clients] are actually working with cloud. 

Networking is…?

Ever-changing. The drive that has seen the ability to provide services from a cloud-based solution set is coming all the way through the enterprise and it’s reducing cost, is easier to implement and is making things a lot easier to manage.
