How do your customers’ securely and reliably transfer data between Cloud environments? Which includes a mix of public cloud and on-premise locations. Connecting multiple locations, each with physical or virtual network topology using different endpoints with varied features and functionality adds COMPLEXITY. Public Cloud providers are responsible for security OF the Cloud. Not security IN the cloud. So how do you protect your customers’ data and applications from evolving threats – like malware and ransomware in this shared responsibility model when the attack surface is increased and lowering the RISK? In a distributed environment how do Service Providers visualise and

10G and 100G links are becoming common in the NREN community.  This is not just in the regional and backbone provider environments, but also within campus networks hosting DTNs and HPC clusters. The need for Nx100G networking is present and growing.   At the same time we are looking at sharing and slicing these enormous networks.  Traffic engineering, performance, and multi-tenant isolation must be addressed at the HW architectural level in order to build networks that work well. To make this happen and to adapt to the changing network needs, open programmable (SDN) networking must lie at the heart of new
