SUMMARY:Next-Generation Networking: Disaggregating the Data Center
DESCRIPTION:Next-Generation Networking\nDisaggregating the Data Center\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Tuesday\, April 25\, 2017\n6:00 pm to 8:30 pm\n6:00 pm: Reception and networking\n7:00 pm: Panel discussion (with Q&A) \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Data centers\, the last bastions of proprietary Internet infrastructure solutions\, are facing a new challenger\, one that promises to break down walls by providing standardization\, flexibility\, and increased control over data center operations — Open Data Center Networking. \nFor decades\, networking giants like Cisco\, Juniper\, and Brocade dominated the industry. Later\, Google\, Facebook\, and Amazon built extensive data centers using proprietary hardware and software\, emerging as leading hyper-scale operators. Today\, the Open Compute Project is disaggregating hardware and software in the data center to provide greater flexibility\, scalability\, and efficiency with software doing more heavy lifting. \nThis next generation of networking is driving disruption in the IT infrastructure market\, which IDC predicts will maintain a 24% CAGR to reach over $140B by 2019. \n\nWith the adoption of open data center networking\, who will come out ahead?\nWill IT infrastructure startups be able to challenge the infrastructure giants that currently dominate the market?\nWhich companies are the venture capitalists watching?\n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Moderator\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Roy Chua\, Co-Founder and Partner\, SDxCentral \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Panelists\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Mansour Karam\, Co-Founder and CEO\, Apstra \nJR Rivers\, Co-Founder and CTO\, Cumulus Networks \nAmit Sanyal\, VP of Product Management\, Innovium \nSudip Chakrabarti\, Partner\, LightSpeed Venture Partners \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				View or download flyer for event: \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Download the printable PDF. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				SRI International Conference Center\n333 Ravenswood Drive\nMenlo Park\, CA 94025
